Belle Chen

London-based Belle Chen is a pianist and composer whose unique approach in blurring the lines between classical and electronic music has been recognised by industry heavyweights. Described as an artist that is “original and provocative… feels like the sense of discovery” (Brian Eno), Chen is currently performing music from her latest album ‘Ravel In The Forest’ (#7 UK Specialist Classical chart, #15 ARIA Classical chart); an evocative celebration of the forests’ colourful ecosystems and the humankind’s distinctive capacity to imagine.

What sets Chen’s music apart is a quirky yet tender approach to musical storytelling. With influences of Ryuichi Sakamoto and Joe Hisaishi’s melodic sweetness shining through, Chen also blends sonically bold synth explorations and free flowing improvisations that could feel equally at home on jazz or experimental stages.

Chen’s transient childhood in Taiwan and Australia has shaped her long-term relationship with music. A blending of eastern and western cultures have set Chen up on a continual search for her own identity and belonging, a journey she lives openly through her music.

With performances described as having “beautiful pieces and flawless execution… a delightful surprise for all of your senses” (Headphone Commute) and “an absorbing performance by a unique musical innovator” (Limelight Magazine), her appearances are not to be missed. Firmly stating her arrival to the UK scene with her debut at the EFG London Jazz Festival in 2024, Chen’s releases have gathered Australian Music Prize nominations and amassed over 40 million streams to-date.
