Julie Ye

Julie Yuqing Ye is an Oslo-based classical pianist, known for her versatile work as both a soloist and chamber musician. She has performed at notable venues such as the Norwegian Opera & Ballet, Oslo Concert Hall, the Munch Museum, University Aula in Oslo, as well as Wigmore Hall, Draper's Hall, and Milton Court Concert Hall in London.

At the age of eight, she was admitted to Unge Talenter, a program for young and talented musicians at Barratt Due Institute of Music in Oslo, and started studying with Einar Steen-Nøkleberg. In 2018 she completed her Artist Diploma (Diplomstudiet) at the Norwegian Academy of Music, together with a masters degree in Music Performance at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama.

Her festival appearances include Oslo Chamber Music Festival, Oxford Philomusica Piano Festival, Beijing International Music Festival and Academy, International Summer Academy Mozarteum, Hardanger Musikkfest, Trondheim Kammermusikkfestival and Valdres sommersymfoni.

Julie’s performances have been broadcast on channels like NRK, TV2, and Bayerischer Rundfunk. Notable television appearances include NRK's Grieg Minutt for Minutt (2018) and the show Meisterklasse (2012) alongside Leif Ove Andsnes. She has also collaborated with musicians from the Norwegian Radio Orchestra (Kringkastingsorkesteret) and the Norwegian National Opera Orchestra.

In recent years, Julie has been passionate about bringing classical music to broader audiences. She has been involved in children's concerts, tours in care homes, and has produced several cross-disciplinary performances. Her interest in rarely performed works is reflected in her debut album From the Archives: Hall, Tveitt, Grieg, which features rediscovered gems such as the piano sonatas of Pauline Hall and Geirr Tveitt.
