Chee-Hang See (http://cheehang.weebly.com) is a prize winning pianist who has been called "a cool and confident performer" by the Charleston City Paper. After an appearance at the Piccolo Spoleto Festival, Charleston Today.net wrote that "he displayed absolute clarity and through his refined dynamic range brought gorgeous contrasts to each section". He has appeared with Chamber Music Charleston, the Charleston Symphony Orchestra, the Hilton Head Symphony Orchestra Youth Concerto Competition, the Bela Bartok Orchestra at Music Fest Perugia in Italy and has been soloist, orchestra and chamber pianist in his native Singapore.

Chee-Hang is currently a student of Sandra Shapiro at the Cleveland Institute of Music.

He has participated in masterclasses with such world-renowned pianists as Ilana Vered, Michael Lewin and Beatrice Long.

Thanks to a College of Charleston Research Grant in 2010, Chee-Hang formed the Tan and See Piano Duo with his colleague, Malaysian pianist Amy Tan. They have been described as “emanating a sense of pure fun that is always infectious to audiences” (CharlestonToday.net). They have been finalists of the International Web Concert Hall Competition and have performed in festivals and concert series in Europe, Asia and North America. Their solo and orchestral appearances have been broadcast on Public Radio. They have attended masterclasses with the Aebersold/Neiweem Duo, DUO Stephanie and Saar, Oleyuria Duo, and Stenzl Duo. They have been faculty at the Charleston Academy of Music and the Chicago Duo Piano Festival.

In Singapore, Chee-Hang studied piano under the tutelage of Wong Joon Hwang of the Nanyang Technological University and the National Institute of Education. He was awarded Piano and Accompaniment Diplomas from the Royal Schools of Music and London's Trinity College.
