Isabel Ong:
Based in Buffalo, violinist Isabel Ong was a member of the New Juilliard Ensemble led by Joel Sachs at the Juilliard School and has performed at venues such as Carnegie Hall, Alice Tully Hall, National Sawdust, MOMA and the KKL Luzern Concert Hall.
A strong advocate for using the power of music to serve a greater humanitarian purpose, Isabel performed at ASAP’s (Advocates for Southeast Asians and the Persecuted) fifteenth anniversary celebration honoring their non-profit service of spreading higher education and implementing healthier and cleaner living conditions for the people of Cambodia, Thailand, Laos, and Vietnam. She has performed on the Taiwan Indigenous Television Channel 16, and was also asked by Aletheia University of Tamsui, Taiwan to perform in their 130th anniversary concert, providing a mixed recital of Western Classical music and classically-rendered Chinese folk pieces. Isabel was an inaugural member of the Spark Collective, an ensemble designed to perform new works by current compositional students at the University of South Carolina, and curate and perform interactive concerts for the community.
An equally dedicated teacher, Isabel is on faculty at SUNY Fredonia, Mercyhurst University, and is a teaching artist at the Buffalo-based non-profit organization, Buffalo String Works. She also spends her summers on faculty at Point CounterPoint in Vermont. She holds degrees from Juilliard and University of South Carolina (BM, MM, and DMA).
