Yunchan Lim 선정이유

Just 18, this Korean pianist became the youngest-ever winner of the Van Cliburn International Piano Competition in June. He daringly chose Liszt’s deliriously difficult “Transcendental Études” for his semifinal round, and in the finals played Rachmaninoff’s classic Third Concerto with a power and — more important — poised poetry that had a standard sounding fresh. I wasn’t at the competition in Fort Worth, but even as seen on YouTube this is superb work, with a maturity and confidence uncanny in a teenager. (Read our feature about the Cliburn competition.)


어떤 유명 오케와 협연하는지가 중요한 사람도 있지만 콩쿨 라이브 반주를 한 포트워스 오케와 레전드 공연 남기고 그 해 최고의 공연으로 선정되는 게 더 의미있지 않을까
