Yeol Eum Son - Rising Korean Classical music artist.

This time, I want to introduce a musician - Yeol Eum Son -The most hot, rising Korean Classical music artist. She is 28 years old, and her awards include the Silver Medal at the 13th International Van Cliburn Piano Competition, in which she also received the Steven De Groote Memorial Award for the Best Performance of Chamber Music. In addition, she got the Silver medal in International Tchaikovsky Competition in 2011. I think this career is the most notable achievement.


This is the movie when she got the silver medal in International Tchaikovsky Competition. She have clear note tone and this advantage is seeing well in the fastest part in the music. From the 180 tempo, her advantage is maximized.

I saw her performance first in the Suwon philharmonic ochestra's regular performance in 2012. She played with Suwon philharmonic at that time, so I could see her in Korea.
She is living in Germany mainly, so it is not easy to see her in korea even if she is Korean.


With the great Maestro Myung Whun Chung, she played Bartok Piano Concerto No3. I want to praise of her ensemble skill. With Maestro Chung and Korea's best ochestra, Seoul philharmonic, she did not make any mistake at this moment. I want to point out the classical pianist's weak point, suitable to play solo, but Yeol Eum is good at Ensemble as well.


Finally I want to recommend Chopin piano concerto No.2 F minor. She expressed stream of emotion unbelievably at this performance. Have fun with Yeol Eum!^^
