“Ray has proven himself to be a very pure musician with great qualities such as a beautiful youthful tone, vitality and lightness.
He has all the skills of a truly musical interpreter,”

said the great Maxim Vengerov

Winner of the Queen Elisabeth (2009) and Yehudi Menuhin Competitions (2008), Ray Chen is among the most compelling young violinists today. “Ray has proven himself to be a very pure musician with great qualities such as a beautiful youthful tone, vitality and lightness. He has all the skills of a truly musical interpreter,” said the great Maxim Vengerov.

A naturally stylish fellow, Ray is noted for his commitment to breaking down the barriers between classical music, fashion, and pop culture – he’s even been supported by Giorgio Armani and been featured in Vogue magazine!

Ray Chen, regarded as one of the hottest violinists on the international circuit, will perform the complex, original version of Alexey Shor’s „Seascapes“ for violin and orchestra.

 

"Colors dance, moods swing, and Chen’s artistry blazes"
