Zhou Kehan

 

In the constellation of young talents shaping the future of opera, the name Zhou Kehan (from the class of Xie Nan, Shenzhen University, China) has shone with a special brilliance. As the absolute winner in the solo singing category at the EUROPE OPEN MUSIC COMPETITION, this young artist has proven that top-tier interpretation knows no geographical boundaries.

«This recognition is more than an award; it is the wind in the sails of my mission. I will direct the funds toward deepening my artistic expression—from masterclasses to precious scores and visits to opera houses that serve as the temples of our art. I thank the jury for recognizing my sincerity.»

Thanks to the vision of the organizers and MIR Production, the prize fund becomes a vital resource for Kehan’s further development. Her commitment to investing the award into masterclasses and visits to global opera centers speaks to the artistic maturity that Professor Nan has instilled in her student.

In vocal pedagogy circles, Xie Nan is recognized as an «architect of the voice» who forms not just technicians, but artists with integrity.

This success is not only the result of vocal virtuosity but also the rigorous academic discipline of Shenzhen University (SZU), which once again confirms its role as a world-class incubator.

As Shenzhen grows into a technological and cultural metropolis at the mouth of the Pearl River, artists like Zhou Kehan become its finest ambassadors, proving that music is the most powerful language of communication between East and West.

With the support of the European Association of Music Educators and Performers and MIR Production, Zhou Kehan is no longer just a «Chinese prodigy» but a relevant name on the global map of classical singing.

In an era of global challenges, the mission of the European Association of Music Educators and Performers, with the production support of MIR Production, becomes increasingly important. Our online music platform offers not just a competition, but the visibility that young laureates need to break through onto the world stage.
