Anastasia Chin

ABOUT

Top prize winner ex aequo of the Ninth Mae and Irving Jurow International Harpsichord Competition 2021, Singaporean fortepianist, harpsichordist and pianist Anastasia Chin has been praised for her naturally sensitive, elegant and eloquent performances, and for her ability to make the instruments sing. She is in frequent demand as soloist, chamber musician, and continuo player on the harpsichord, fortepiano and organ. She was one of three finalists in the 2018 Berkeley Festival International Early Piano Competition. Anastasia is a regular performer on the Bloomington Bach Cantata Project series and the Bloomington Early Music Festival, and also plays regularly with Tonos del Sur, an ensemble specializing in 17th and 18th century Latin American music.


Recent engagements included Handel's Messiah with the Oregon Symphony (December 2023), J.S. Bach’s Brandenburg Concerto No. 5 with the Indiana University Historical Performance Institute for the Madison Performing Arts Foundation (May 2024), concerts with Tonos Del Sur at Notre Dame de Chicago as part of the University of Illinois Chicago Latin American Baroque Music Festival (April 2024) and in Bloomington for the Bloomington Early Music Festivals 2022 and 2023, and guest recitals and lecture-recitals at the Yong Siew Toh Conservatory of Music in Singapore (2023 and 2024).


Starting her musical career as a pianist, Anastasia made her fortepiano debut performing Mozart's Piano Concerto in A major, K. 414 with the Indiana University Classical Orchestra. The Bloomington Herald Times wrote of the performance, “Chin showed compelling evidence of her training, along with a musicality that could have come only from native bent and talent. Her Mozart honored Mozart. Technically, she offered the listener pristine clarity and precision in execution. She seemed at one with the fortepiano, the lively action in its keys and the limpid tonal quality. Her interpretation featured stylistic elegance but also, in welcome abundance, the lyricism and caprice that pervade the score.” (Peter Jacobi, February 7, 2012).  More
