She was also a full scholarship recipient at Yale University, where she earned an Artist Diploma. Her major organ teachers were Thomas Murray, John Weaver, and Paul Jacobs.  Since 2014 she has been Artist-in-Residence at Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church.  For more information about her, please visit www.chelseachen.com.

Mr. Lee made his concerto debut at the age of eleven, playing the Dvorak Cello Concerto in San Francisco’s Davies Symphony Hall under conductor Edwin Outwater. Joseph earned both a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Music from The Juilliard School where he studied with Joel Krosnick and Darrett Adkins. He also earned a Master’s degree in orchestral performance from The Manhattan School of Music studying with Alan Stepansky. Mr. Lee has performed in master classes for Richard Aaron, Ralph Kirshbaum, Lynn Harrell, and Janos Starker. Playing in orchestra he has worked with prominent conductors including: Michael Tilson Thomas, Leonard Slatkin, Andre Previn, Pierre Boulez, David Zinman, Esa-Pekka Salonen, and James Levine.
