Lydia Hwang is a violinist in her third year at the Queensland Conservatorium Griffith University, where she studies under Michele Walsh. She has performed with ensembles including the Queensland Youth Symphony and participated in several Australian Youth Orchestra programs.

Lydia has gained orchestral experience with the Queensland Symphony Orchestra in its Oceans project, as well as with Ensemble Q and Opera Australia. A recent highlight was performing as a soloist with the Queensland Conservatorium Symphony Orchestra as part of the concertos festival.

Chamber music is a central part of Lydia’s work. She has performed in a variety of ensemble settings, including a side-by-side program with members of the London Symphony Orchestra Wind Quintet, and more recently with the Australian String Quartet.

Outside of Camerata, Lydia continues to expand her experience across solo, chamber, and orchestral repertoire, with the aim of sharing music with audiences in Australia and internationally.

When she is not performing or rehearsing, Lydia enjoys recharging with a matcha – a simple routine that helps her stay energised during intensive practice and rehearsal periods.
