Pianists Son Minsu and Lim Yunchan to Perform Duo Recital in Seoul
First Classical Concert in Hyundai Card Culture Project Series
Brahms, Rachmaninoff, and Strauss Featured in July Performances
Pianists Son Minsu and Lim Yunchan, who are gaining international attention on the world classical music stage, will perform for Seoul audiences this July through the 'Hyundai Card Culture Project.'
On May 14, Hyundai Card announced that it will host 'Hyundai Card Culture Project 30 Son Minsu & Lim Yunchan' over two days, July 14 and 15.
This marks the first classical music concert in the Hyundai Card Culture Project series. The event will be a duo recital, featuring the two pianists performing together on two pianos.
Son Minsu is known for his powerful technique and profound musicality, and is active in both the United States and South Korea.
Lim Yunchan has gained worldwide fame since winning the 2022 Van Cliburn International Piano Competition, and is noted for his explosive interpretative skills.
The two share a teacher-student relationship, with Lim Yunchan being a student of Son Minsu. Their artistic connection as contemporaries is expected to deliver a moving experience.
The program will include Brahms' 'Sonata for Two Pianos,' Rachmaninoff's 'Symphonic Dances,' and Richard Strauss' 'Der Rosenkavalier Suite.'
Notably, the Strauss piece will be presented in a piano duo arrangement by Lee Hanul, winner of the Bartok International Competition's composition category.
The two artists will also perform the Brahms and Strauss pieces from this program at the Verbier Festival in Switzerland in July. Korean audiences can enjoy these performances through the Seoul Hyundai Card Culture Project.
The concerts will take place at 8:00 p.m. on July 14 at Lotte Concert Hall in Songpa-gu, Seoul, and at 7:30 p.m. on July 15 at the Concert Hall of the Seoul Arts Center in Seocho-gu, Seoul.
