TingKwan (Jason) Lau is an emerging Toronto based saxophonist specializing in Classical and
Contemporary music. An active performer and educator, Jason is fluent in the repertoire of the
saxophone and is as comfortable a soloist as he is a chamber musician.
An active competitor, Jason won the 2018 University of Toronto Faculty of Music Winds
Competition and will be competing in the 7
th Andorra Internation Saxophone Competition in
April 2020. A strong interest in exploring the virtuosic capabilities of the saxophone drives Jason
to explore music beyond that of his instrument.
Jason is in his Final year of the Master of Instruments Specialize in Saxophone at the
Lemmensinstituut under the guidance of Prof. Mariano Garcia and Nadine Bal. A David and
Marcia Beach Summer Study Award, along with a Faculty of Music Undergraduate Associaton
individual grants gave Jason the opportunity to participate in the Université Européenne de
Saxophone in Gap, France in the summer of 2017-19. There, he received advanced instruction
from virtuosos Claude Delangle, Arno Bornkamp, Vincent David and among others.
