2017 CLIBURN GOLD MEDALIST

Program:
SCHUBERT Sonata in C Minor, D. 958
RAVEL La Valse
Gold medalist of the Fifteenth Van Cliburn International Piano Competition, 28-year-old Korean pianist Yekwon Sunwoo has been hailed for “his total command over the instrument and its expressiveness” (San Francisco Examiner). A powerful and virtuosic performer, he also-in his own words-“strives to reach for the truth and pure beauty in music” and hopes to convey his deeply-felt emotions to audiences.
Born in Anyang, South Korea, Mr. Sunwoo began learning piano at age 8. He gave both his recital and orchestra debuts in 2004 in Seoul before moving to the United States in 2005 to study with Seymour Lipkin at the Curtis Institute of Music. He earned his bachelor’s degree there and his master’s at The Juilliard School with Robert McDonald, and also studied with Richard Goode at the Mannes School of Music. He currently studies under Bernd Goetzke in Hannover.
Mr. Sunwoo has performed as soloist with the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra under Marin Alsop, The Juilliard Orchestra with Itzhak Perlman at Avery Fisher Hall, Houston Symphony Orchestra with James Feddeck, Fort Worth Symphony Orchestra with Leonard Slatkin and Nicholas McGegan, National Orchestra of Belgium, Sendai Philharmonic Orchestra, and others. In recitals he has appeared in Weill Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall, Hamarikyu Asahi Hall in Tokyo, Wigmore Hall in London, Radio France and Salle Cortot in Paris, Kumho Art Hall in Seoul, and throughout South Korea, Germany, Switzerland, Prague, and Morocco.
An avid chamber musician, his partners have included the Jerusalem and Brentano String Quartets, violinists Benjamin Beilman and Ida Kafavian, cellists Edgar Moreau, Gary Hoffman, and Peter Wiley, and pianist Anne-Marie McDermott. He has toured Costa Rica, Guatemala, and Panama with the Kumho Asiana Cultural Foundation, performed for the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center’s Inside Chamber Music Lectures, and been invited to the Summit Music, Bowdoin International, and Toronto Summer Music Festivals.
In addition to the Cliburn gold medal, Mr. Sunwoo has won first prizes at the 2015 International German Piano Award in Frankfurt, the 2014 Vendome Prize held at the Verbier Festival, the 2013 Sendai International Music Competition, and the 2012 William Kapell International Piano Competition.
La Valse was insane
Thank you for the very beautiful performance. Best wishes.
La Valse was UNBELIEVABLE
영상 넘 감사해여ㅠㅠ
슈베르트 너무 아름답네요
I don't know what's going on. Since Xiaolin won the prize, many people have prejudice against yekwon Sunwoo. I don't think this is comparable at all. First of all, we are human. Yekwon's performance is definitely much more mature and more stable than the 18-year-old boy. Some, I still like yekwon sunwoo more. I have been following him for a long time. From the earliest time he joined Elizabeth in 2013, he was very strong, and he is not weaker than today's young people. Therefore, some people have no academic and one-sided denial of others, which is a very low-faced behavior!
Pianist: Yekwon Sunwoo | South Korea, Age 28
Franz Schubert (1797-1828)
Sonata in No. 19 C Minor, D. 958 (1828)
1. 2:36 - I. Allegro
2. 14:19 - II. Adagio
3. 22:55 - III. Menuetto & Trio. Allegro
4. 25:50 - IV. Allegro
Maurice Ravel (1875-1937)
5. 36:25 - M.72: La Valse
I’m just so very happy that his style of play got finally recognized in 2017 here so I could now have more chance to listen to him. For me, his music resonants in the most intimate, intuitive, purely energetic way.. at the end of La Valse, I could feel so many genre of music and sound of everyday life and even part of the pianist’s story of life too. I’ve been listening to music for my whole life intensively, but this was very unusual experience for me.. I’m just very grateful for having this experience. Someone was criticizing like ‘you listeners are taking this too personal..’ but if a classical musician can make listener to feel this way with music played million times before, I think that means this musician is so very special.
bravo~~~
36:20 La Valse
Thank you!
감사합니다ㅠㅜㅠㅜㅜㅜㅠㅠㅜㅜㅜㅜㅠ
Schubert piano sonata D.958 2:38
Actually in the Schubert, he does not do many of the things that the composer wrote in the score, but this is one of the most difficult piano sonatas ever written.
It took him a while to get settled - a slight touch of nerves, possibly (and who could blame him) - but well worth waiting for, and one of the better versions of La Valse on YT, in my opinion.

What's the third piece?
Ugh, I was SO annoyed by his prolonged “pre-performance routine”. The keyboard is CLEAN already, jeezus. But he did make up for it, with some fine and persuasive Schubert D. 958. He shakes his head WAY TOO MUCH, BTW, doesn’t he look kinda like Jeans-Yves Thibaudet? Maybe it’s the hair. LOL
its 958
@@samaritan29 Haha, thanks. I can’t believe I left two typos in this short comment. “MUCHz”? OMG... “z” for the comma! YUCK. LOL
@@jasonkim5503 Haha. and i agree with you, the pianist constantly nods to himself when he plays, detracts from the playing...
Until you can play at his level no one wants to hear or see your arm chair critiques. I don't see either one of you at the Cliburn for all to comment on.
@@globalc3849 What the fuck are you talking about? There was no criticism whatsoever, certainly not about his performance. In fact, I praised his performance. Read more carefully, before you leave any bitching, which is totally uncalled for. NOBODY asked YOU to budge in here.
Great pianist, but that Ravel piece is horrible.
Russell Thompson - when I first heard it I wasn't keen either but there's more to most Works of Art than meets the eye (or ear) on the initial acquaintance. Stick with it; I'm sure you'll be well-rewarded after a few hearings.
listen lim dong hyek's la valse
뭐가 문제일까..
곡때문이냐 연주때문이냐 무미건조함
meetrieum 제 생각에 선우예권님연주는 화려하거나 기교적 연주가 아닌 순수한 연주인것 같아요. 듣고 있으면 왠지 찡한 느낌이 나거등요
겨울에 눈이 소복히 쌓인 광경이 그려지기도 하고 어릴적 순수하게 계곡에서 뛰어놀던 장면이 연상되네여 이연주를 듣고 단순히 무미건조하다고 하는건 음악감상을 집중해서 안하신것 같은데 눈감고 이어폰끼고 집중해서 감상추천함다
최근 피아노곡만 5년간 들은중에 최악의 작곡인거같다는생각을 금할수없고 그런곡을 선곡한거랑 연주 또한 뛰어나다고 말하긴 어려워보이네요..
다른곡을 자신만의 스타일로 연주한다면 다른평가 충분히 받겠지만 분명 이곡 과 연주는 아니에요
님덕에 다시 한번 들어봤지만..
동일해요
슈베르트가 피아노에서 그닥 뛰어난 작곡가는 아니란걸 이 곡을 통해 알게됬네요
그리고 연주 감상은 눈감고 듣지않아도 충분히 감상가능하죠
오히려 눈을 감으면 쓸데없는 감정이입이 되지않나 싶네요..혹 선우예권이 님에게 들려주는거라 착각하는건 아닌지..답글보고 좀의심되네요.^^
meetrieum 엥 저에게 들려주는거라고는 생각 안해요 그냥 단지 제가 느낀바를 적은거에여, 님이 그렇게 느끼셨다면 사람마다 느끼는것은 다 다른거니까 그럴수있겠네여
@@loh9848 알겠습니다
감사합니다. ^-^
@@meetrieum 헐 슈베르트를 까시네 슈베르트 다른곡들 들어봐요
