Mandy Chang began her musical journey at four years old under the tutelage of Haiyan Sun. She joined the Metropolitan Youth Symphony at age seven, and later joined the Portland Youth Philharmonic, where they frequented the Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall and enjoyed playing for children’s showcases. Beyond her orchestral participation, Mandy also enjoys sharing her music with her local community. During the holidays, she spends her time to performing for residents at local retirement homes and hopes everyone can enjoy music.
