Chao-Chih George Chen: Classical Musician in New York

About Chao-Chih George Chen

Chao-Chih George Chen is a clarinetist working across rock and pop contexts, with appearances in New York City’s living-room concert circuit through Groupmuse NYC. He has collaborated with pianist Katherine Miller in programs such as “A Listening Tour of the Clarinet Repertoire,” which places the instrument in close focus and without theatrical framing. Chen’s playing favors directness and clean line, letting texture and rhythm carry the narrative. His work reflects an interest in how repertoire and venue shape the way an audience listens.
