Gene Hsu, an independent researcher, linguist and vocalist is an amazing young lady with a quest to build a bridge between cultures of the East and West by her research and work in music, translation and interpreting.

As a singer, song-writer, she's been exploring the role of music in bridging this gap to enhance mutual understanding which has led to a journey of discovery and self-discovery. She hopes to bring peace and to bring people together by translating ancient Chinese poems in a singable way. 

Gene is a professional conference interpreter and certified translator. She is also a qualified court interpreter, and holds an MA, PG Dip, BSc, Level-6 DPSI. She has presented her research papers at several conferences in the UK and abroad and this week will be presenting her paper at the Royal Musical Association Annual Conference 2024.
