South Korea is home to an ever-expanding cohort of inventive composers with fresh ideas and talented performers who have made names for themselves at many of the world’s finest concert halls. In the first of two Seoul Festival programs with the LA Phil, composer Unsuk Chin curates a night showcasing Korean composers and artists who are shaping musical culture and building connections from Seoul to Los Angeles. Composer and UCLA assistant professor Kay Kyurim Rhie was born in South Korea, raised in LA, and she blends influences ranging from film and jazz to European avant-garde to Korean folk melded with the blues. Hankyeol Yoon leads the LA Phil in the world premiere of her new song cycle. Texu Kim’s lullaby-inspired Viola Concerto takes its name “Ko-oh” from the Korean baby-talk word for “sleep,” and he musically explores the idea of sleep as both a nightly occurrence and a mortal and final destination. USC Thornton faculty Yura Lee performs the world premiere of Kim’s revised viola showpiece. 🌟 Prepare for an extraordinary experience from June 7, 2025 to June 8, 2025 at Walt Disney Concert Hall.
