Unsuk Chin is a composer based in Berlin, Germany. She was born and grew up in Seoul, Korea, where she studied piano and initially wanted to be a concert pianist. But her family didn’t have enough money to get her piano, let alone keep paying for lessons. Her teacher recommended that she consider composition. If she couldn’t get regular access to a piano, she could get regular access to the music.
