Biography
Cameron Chin-See is an upcoming trumpet player from Wolverhampton, currently studying at the Royal Northern College of Music (RNCM), in Manchester. After turning down a place at the University of Oxford in 2019, he opted to go to Manchester to take up a place on the highly selective ‘three-year intensive’ Bachelor of Music course at the RNCM, which he completed in July 2022 after studying with Murray Greig and Thomas Osborne. He decided to stay on at the RNCM to undertake postgraduate studies alongside an ever-expanding freelance career – since then he has been in demand as an orchestral trumpeter, playing with various orchestras up and down the country, including recent appearances with the Hallé Orchestra, Opera North, the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic, the Ulster Orchestra and Chineke! Orchestra. He has also recently had trials for permanent positions in both the RLPO and the Ulster Orchestra. Chamber Music is a huge part of Cameron’s musical life and he is a member of both the Whitworth Septet and Phoenix Brass (Semi-Finalists at the 2023 Philip Jones International Brass Quintet Competition).
