Hi there!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✨Allow me to re-introduce myself✨⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🎻 My name is Chaowen. I am a conductor, artist, mom of 2 girls, entrepreneur, and someone who is really passionate about learning. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🎵 My creative works are driven by the goals of demystifying classical music and making it accessible to all communities. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
💛 I intentionally program works by women and living composers with lesser-known works by traditional composers to create a colorful sound palette for my musicians and audiences. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You can find more about me on my website ChaowenTing.com or support my non-profit @girlswhoconduct or listen to @theconductorspodcsst where I share many tips and inside stories with some wonderful colleagues. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Today would have been Adrian's 85th birthday. 🎉Wishing him a wonderful celebration up in heaven. He's probably golfing with Samuel Barber and drinking some fine scotch 🥃⛳

Miss you.

GT conductor Chaowen Ting (@tingchaowen ) led the Georgia Philharmonic (@gaphilharmonic ) in a cinematic performance in costume thanks to a hand-crafted Light Fury design by Music Tech + HCI grad student Jason Gao.

This collab is pure Georgia Tech: innovation, creativity, and cross-disciplinary magic. Whether it’s coding, composing, or crafting couture, our students and faculty prove — #WeCanDoThat. 💡🐉🎻

Maestro Adrian Gnam left us last night.

He was my first American teacher, who brought me to the states 18years ago, and open a whole world to me.

If not for him, I wouldn’t have gotten anywhere close to where I am now.

Like all my conducting teachers - although they taught me different things and had various influences on me - 𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗱 𝗶𝗻 𝗺𝗲 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝗜 𝗱𝗶𝗱𝗻’𝘁 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻 𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗲𝘃𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝗺𝘆𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗳.

I am forever grateful for him. RIP maestro.

Had a wonderful time in Shanghai (for the first time!) working with Novus-Classica Camerata and students from @shanghaiconservatoryofmusic

Made friends with talented young musicians and ate lots of Shanghai wontons 😅

Of the many premieres that I’ve conducted, 𝙢𝙮 𝙜𝙧𝙖𝙣𝙙𝙥𝙖 𝙪𝙨𝙚𝙙 𝙩𝙤 𝙗𝙧𝙖𝙞𝙙 𝙚𝙨𝙥𝙖𝙧𝙩𝙤 𝙜𝙧𝙖𝙨𝙨 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙝𝙤𝙪𝙧𝙨 𝙪𝙣𝙙𝙚𝙧 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙨𝙝𝙖𝙙𝙤𝙬 𝙤𝙛 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙛𝙞𝙜 𝙩𝙧𝙚𝙚 by Pilar Miralles certainly holds a very special place in my heart.

Commissioned by @spaincultureus written for @gtorchestra , the central artistic idea of the work is « 𝐍𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐦𝐮𝐜𝐡 𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐬. »

“Music, overall, is all about creating expectations. But in this piece, there is no direction at all. There is no expectation of anything happening other than what is happening at the moment,” she said in an interview with the @gt_nique .

People asked me if I was happy with the result of this commission, or if this work meets my expectations. My answer was: 𝗔𝗹𝗹 𝗜 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗱, 𝘄𝗮𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗼 𝗳𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗹𝘆 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗰 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗺𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗮𝘀. 𝗔𝗻𝗱 𝗜 𝗮𝗺 𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗳𝗮𝗰𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻.

As a conductor, how do I facilitate (in)actions? Watch the live stream recording if you haven’t already!

My week in Berlin has come to an end.

It was such a wonderful experience assisting @sergi.gili for the festival hosted by @choralspace2021 and I have:

✅Conducted a choir of over 1000 singers in rehearsal …..
✔️Worked on the Berlin Philharmonie stage
☑️Helped bringing people together through music

This experience was particularly special because that choral bench behind the orchestra was where I decided to switch from law to music in 2004. Exactly 2️⃣0️⃣ years ago.

I am very grateful for all the people I’ve met and worked with through this journey.
