Abigail Sin & Yibin Seow

Abigail Sin

Singaporean pianist Abigail Sin’s musical journey has taken her to concert venues across the globe, from the Aram Khachaturian concert hall in Yerevan to Wigmore Hall in London. A top prize winner of several international piano competitions, she is an alumnus of the prestigious Verbier Festival Academy and is a Young Steinway Artist.

Abigail is the co-founder of the More Than Music concert series, which aims to bring classical chamber music to new audiences. Upon completing a PhD at the Royal Academy of Music in 2018, Abigail joined the academic faculty of the Yong Siew Toh Conservatory of Music.

Yibin Seow

Yibin Seow is a Singaporean-born oboist and conductor. His love for Baroque music was first kindled under the guidance of Emanuel Abbuehl in Musik Akademie Basel, who showed him the limitless artistic possibilities of playing Baroque music on the modern oboe. A few years later, he is appointed Guest Principal Oboist of Chamber Philharmonic Taipei, an ensemble which was dedicated in exploring and performing Baroque music.

One of his current favourite pastime is to play through various compositions by Bach, such as his flute and violin sonatas, partitas and the cello suites.
