Parsons and Poole Masterclass: Yekwon Sunwoo, piano

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

Following the Parsons and Poole Concert the previous evening, Yekwon joins us once more for a masterclass with Western music students. 

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”.
