From the soloists' websites:
Chaeyoung Park has been praised as a passionate pianist who “does not play a single note without thought or feeling” (New York Concert Review). Embracing a broad range of classical music literature, her programs feature works ranging from the early French Baroque by Rameau, to Beethoven sonatas, to new music by living composers including South Korean classical composer Unsuk Chin. As a recital soloist, Park has performed at major venues including Carnegie Hall’s Weill Recital Hall, Bravo! Vail Music Festival, Gilmore Rising Stars and Tongyeong International Music Festival.
Cellist Zlatomir Fung burst onto the scene as the first American in four decades (and youngest musician ever) to win First Prize at the International Tchaikovsky Competition Cello Division. He has since garnered accolades, critical acclaim and standing ovations at performances around the world, more and more widely recognized as one of the preeminent cellists of our time. Astounding audiences with his boundless virtuosity and exquisite sensitivity, the 26-year-old has already proven himself a star among the next generation of world-class musicians.
