Chan has completed her music studies at the Hong Kong Baptist University, earning a Bachelor's Degree in Music Studies under the tutelage of Ms Ann Huang (Harp Principal of Hong Kong Sinfonietta) and Ms Lauyee Yeung (Winner of the prestigious N.Borenstein Harp Competition and Solo Bach Competition). Her interest and passion in music ensemble grew when she was being selected as one of the young harpists to join the harp ensemble under the tutelage and baton of Ms Dan Yu, the Gold Medal Winner of the 2001 USA International Harp Competition. During her 4-year study period at the university, she was appointed as the Principal of Harp in the Baptist University Symphony Orchestra and Wind Symphony, and has showcased her musicality through various solo sections with great feedbacks from peers and guest artists, notably harp cadenzas and sections from "Waltz of the Flowers" from The Nutcracker, Don Juan, Firebird and numerous arias. Under professional coaching of great tutors, Chan has participated and won many local and international competitions in her adolescence, including Hong Kong Harp Competition, Hong Kong Open Competition for Orchestral Instruments, Thailand Youth Harp Competition...etc... Combining her performance as a soloist and orchestra/ensemble musician, Chan enjoys spreading the joy of playing harp to others. To motivate students on long term music learning, fostering music curiosity and strengthening basic techniques are always the biggest motto for the lessons. In addition, Chan also encourages students to take the initiative to participate in competitions, recitals or any form of performances on stage.
