Hi! My name is Maurice “Mori” Liu and I'm a classical guitarist from China. I'm 30 years old.
I started learning guitar in high school, mostly self-taught by attending various international guitar festivals throughout China during 2012-2015. In 2016, I briefly studied with Guillem Pérez-Quer, who helped shaping my style of playing greatly. In 2020, I graduated from New England Conservatory of Music with honors and completed my Master’s Degree and Graduate Diploma in guitar performance with Eliot Fisk, who is the last direct pupil of Andrés Segovia.
My passion for video game music led me to arranging them for guitar and I have been performing on my YouTube Channel since October, 2021. I have recorded over 200 original arrangements of music from acclaimed Japanese composers including Nobuo Uematsu, Masayoshi Soken, Koichi Sugiyama, Yasunori Nishiki, and many others. As of May 2025, my discography includes 20 full-length album and 3 EPs, featuring music from iconic video game series such as Final Fantasy, Dragon Quest, Animal Crossing, and some of my own compositions.
