Caroline Chin, violin
Caroline Chin, violin
Biography
Described by the Chicago Sun Times as “…riveting and insightful, who lights up in passages of violin pyrotechnics,” Caroline Chin has concertized throughout the United States, Europe, and Asia in concert halls including the John F. Kennedy Center, the White House during their Christmas Festivities, New York’s Carnegie and Weill Halls, and the Concertgebeau in Amsterdam. She gave her solo debut at age 12 and has since performed with several orchestras throughout the United States.
Ms. Chin performs as concertmaster with the Paragon Orchestra and has toured the US and Japan with tap dancer Savion Glover. A promoter of new music, she has performed works of composers Elliot Carter, Paul Moravec, Christopher Theofanidis, Michael Gotanska, Lisa Bielawa, Martin Kennedy, and Alexandra Vrebelov. As the Artistic Director of Musica Reginae for the past three years, she organized several projects with contemporary American composers including a commission and world premiere by Pulitzer Prize winner George Walker.
An avid chamber musician, Ms. Chin is also a member of the Hudson Piano Trio. She has collaborated with members of the Takacs Quartet, Vermeer Quartet, the Juilliard Quartet as well as with artists Gary Hoffman, Raphael Wallfisch, Colin Carr, Nobuko Imai, Charles Neidich, Piers Lane, and Abdel Rahman El Basha. Festival appearances include the Newburyport Festival in Massachusetts, Consonances Festival in France, the Schiermonnikoog Chamber Music Festival in Holland, and the 2 Rivers Festival in the United Kingdom.
Deeply involved in music education, Ms. Chin received a Morse Fellowship at the Juilliard School which placed her in the classrooms of New York Public Schools. She currently develops outreach programs to be brought to the students of public schools in Manhattan and Queens.
Ms. Chin received her Bachelor of Music Degree from Indiana University’s School of Music as a student of Miriam Fried and has received her Master of Music Degree from the Juilliard School as a student of Robert Mann.
