Sun, a graduate of the Guildhall School of Music and Drama (GSMD) in London, is one of the most talented saxophonists in Hong Kong and Macau.
In 2001, he became the first Chinese saxophonist and clarinettist to win a full GDMD scholarship. He got his master’s degree in 2006.
As an orchestral musician, Sun is a freelance saxophonist with the Hong Kong Sinfonietta and Macao Orchestra.
