Lee Shih-Yang is certainly one of the greatest musical talents in Taiwan. He is the founder and leader of the improvisation group Ka Dao Yin. Its first CD "Four Characters" has won the Golden Indie Music Award for "Best Jazz Album" and "Best Jazz Track" (Taiwan). The second CD "Slow" won the 25th Golden Melody Award of Traditional Arts and Music for ''Best Crossover Music Album''. His latest live album "Galactic Alignment" with the Belgian pianist Fred van Hove has won the New York City Jazz Record ''Honorary Mention'' of the new releases of 2013. “2 Men” is the collaborative creation between Edward Lam, the sharpest observer of culture on both sides of the Taiwanese Strait, and the choreographers Wu-kang Chen and Wei-chia Su. Starting with the premise of “two men who are most familiar with each other,” Wu-kang Chen and Wei-chia Su have known each other for 15 years, and over time, the emotional build-up between the two playmates/colleagues has become complicated and subtle. Aside from a shared intimacy, their relationship also sometimes features an undercurrent of mutual competitiveness. Their collaboration with Edward Lam adds a whole new source of stimulation. With his trademark precision and intricacy, Lam provides a rich entry point into the various flavors of the relationship between the two men. Improvising pianist Shih-yang Lee in the daring use of the prepared piano devise. Lee’s energetic, explosive piano work most certainly ups the ante on the experimental nature of the two HORSE artists’ performances.
