S’yo is a Taiwanese-Dutch pianist, composer and arranger who is eager to present an accessible medium that immerses the audience in a complex range of human emotions. His music has the seamless openness created by the context of modern classical and contemporary jazz that brings the balance between improvisation and composition while transforming two musical languages. It does not eliminate the viewer but invites Modernism in a tangible way. S'yo lives and works between Taiwan and The Netherlands. As an arranger, he has worked with Tijn Wybenga, Reinier Baas, David Kweksilber, Theo Bleckmann, Alex Sipiagin; Young Jazz Society, NSJO, NSBB, USBB, and Metropole Orchestra. As a composer, S'yo received 56th Downbeat Magazine Student Music Award in composition, as well as two SONIC awards powered by International Society of Jazz Arrangers and Composers in 2019 and 2022.
