Peter Katin (born 1930) is a concert pianist, known for his performances of Chopin.

He was born in London, and educated at the Whitgift School, Croydon. He was a long term supporter of CHE, hosted events for Croydon CHE in his home, and gave benefit concerts to support LGBT causes. In 1974 he was to have given a concert in the Assembly Hall, Tunbridge Wells in aid of the three CHE groups in Kent, but Tunbridge Wells council refused to allow the event to go ahead because of the CHE connection.

From 1978 to 1984 he lectured at the University of Western Ontario in Canada. He now lives in Bexhill-on-Sea. He is a vice-president of CHE.
