Piano Masterclass- Tony Chen Lin
We are delighted to host a Piano Masterclass by Tony Chen Lin on Saturday 29 August 2026, in room 211 (across the courtyard) at the School of Music, the NZSM at Victoria University of Wellington.
Tony emigrated to NZ from China at age 6, and graduated in piano and composition from Canterbury University. He earned MMus and a Soloist Diploma with Distinction from the Hochschule fur Musik In Freiburg, Germany, and studied at the Liszt Academy in Hungary.
After winning the Christchurch concerto competition, he also debuted with the Stuttgart State Orchestra in 2015. He frequently features at the Semaine International Piano et Musique de Chambre in Switzerland, and tours regularly with Chamber Music New Zealand.
He is also a composer, and the NZSO and Christchurch and Auckland Symphony orchestras have performed his works.
His highly acclaimed debut solo album, Digressions, was released on Rattle Records in 2018, featuring classical compositions and his own short works, and reached no 1 on the New Zealand Classical Chart.
