Kalun Leung
Trombonist, Composer
From the jury of the Kranichstein Music Prize 2025: “Kalun Leung is an exceptionally versatile artist. As a trombonist of outstanding technical skills and a highly sensitive dialogue partner, he operates in a variety of aesthetic contexts. The jury was impressed by Leung’s development of the digital tool “mubone,” which—originally conceived as an “augmented instrument” for the trombone—offers a creative platform for distributed authorship by performers and composers. The technological and integrative potential of this tool, as well as Leung’s artistic ideas, promise exciting collaborations in the future.”
