Hey everyone! Currently playing at the Al Bustan Festival here in the beautiful city of Beirut!


Well you may or may not have heard the most recent news - I have just signed with Columbia Artists Management Inc. (Also known as CAMI) And actually for those of you who are as confused as I was when I first signed - you'll probably notice that there are two websites with Columbia Artists. One is the main website - (http://www.cami.com/?webid=2103) and the other is this one (http://www.camimusic.com/artists/ray-chen.html).

Well I had no idea what was going on either until it was explained to me that Camimusic is a division of CAMI and although we are not seperate from CAMI, we have our own president - Jean-Jacques Cesbron who started this division with the blessings of current head honcho - Ronald Wilford.

The artists of camimusic are on both websites but the artists on CAMI are not part of the camimusic

A few names that you might recognize who are part of camimusic - Seiji Ozawa, Lang Lang, Maxim Vengerov, Vadim Repin... just to name a few.

Anyway, that's just a bit of background information. Do let me know what you are interested in reading from me and I'll try to post it.

Hope you're doing well wherever you may be!

 

Best wishes,

Ray

Hey everyone! Welcome to my site!

This is my first time operating any kind of web page other than Facebook or Myspace (yes, I know Myspace is slowly receding into a black hole in cyberspace but mine still exists!) so it’s all very exciting for me! You’ll have to be super patient and I would love to get your input on what you think might make this site better and more accessible.

You can add me on Facebook!

Right now my profile picture consists of me wielding a rather mean-looking Sig Sauer rifle, but this is just because over the summer I decided that I wanted to contrast my “soft violin image” with something a little gutsier.

Nothing gets people running in the opposite direction than a person wielding a gun!

(Well… perhaps you’d get the same reaction holding a viola and looking like you’re about to play.)
