We are honoured to welcome internationally renowned pianist Yekwon Sunwoo as the guest artist for this year's Parsons and Poole Concert and Masterclass.

Gold medallist of the Fifteenth Van Cliburn International Piano Competition, Yekwon Sunwoo has been hailed for his “unfailingly consistent excellence” (International Piano) and celebrated as “a pianist who commands a comprehensive technical arsenal that allows him to thunder without breaking a sweat” (Chicago Tribune). A powerful and virtuosic performer, he also, in his own words, “strives to reach for the truth and pure beauty in music”.

Planned program includes Bach's (arr. Brahms) Chaconne for left hand and Partita No.2 in C minor BWV 826, Rachmaninoff's Variations on a Theme of Corelli and Variations on a Theme of Chopin.
