Info zu Earl Kim & Isang Yun: Complete Works for Solo Violin

On EARL KIM & ISANG YUN, violinist Chi Young Song presents complete works for solo violin by the titular composers, each of whom are of Korean heritage. Blurring the lines between Western musical heritage and traditional Korean music, each piece exhibits the crosscultural and borderless qualities of music. On 12 Caprices for Solo Violin, Chi Young tackles technical, intimate passages rooted in Western standards. The three works by Yun—written after his exile to Germany—make apt use of ornamental gestures, Korean folk music, and Taoist principles to harken back to the composer’s heritage.

Chi Young Song, violin

Chi Young Song
first came to the attention of music critics at the age of sixteen while competing at the Menuhin International Violin Competition. His successful performance of Brahms' Violin Concerto in Berlin, Germany led to recital performances in major concert halls in France, England, and Denmark. ​

As a devoted orchestral player, Chi Young has held positions with the Boston Chamber Orchestra, the Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Berlin, and the Konzerthausorchester Berlin and has worked with conductors such as Daniel Barenboim, Krzysztof Penderecki, and Marek Janowski. ​

In chamber music, he has collaborated with members of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, Minnesota Orchestra, and the Conservatoire national supérieur de musique et de danse de Paris. ​

Chi Young received his Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Violin Performance from The Boston Conservatory under the tutelage of world renowned Joseph Silverstein and Ronan Lefkowitz. He currently holds the position of Coordinator of Strings/Assistant Professor of Violin and Viola at Arkansas State University.
