Christine J. Lee, cello

Praised for her inexhaustible curiosity, Christine is one of the most versatile artists of her generation who performs extensively as a soloist and a chamber musician. She is the first prizewinner of the International Isang Yun Competition and a top laureate of the Queen Elisabeth Competition among her numerous competition victories. Her debut album, Voyage was released in May 2021 through the recording label, Outhere, where she invites her listeners on a journey of self-discovery and building cultural bridges.

In her hopes to make classical music a more relevant force in our society, she has launched Christine’s Notes on Youtube and carries out her bi-weekly live interview series with the top musicians of her generation on Instagram. She is also the creative director for the “We’ve got your Bach” project during the first months of the COVID-19 pandemic, bringing music and comfort to people and providing a platform for the musicians to continue creating and performing during a challenging period.

Committed to serving her community through music, Christine has organized fundraisers and charity concerts to bring unity through music. In her last fundraiser, she collected funds to build a moveable library for underprivileged children in North Philadelphia, where she considers it her second home.
