A kind of superhuman éclat that can easily remind you of Hoffmann or Lhevinne in its supremely clear, neat and even brilliance.
—New York Concert Review

A native of South Korea, pianist Yeol Eum Son is a leading international artist who has excited our patrons in her two previous Bay Area appearances. She is highly regarded as a brilliant virtuoso whose playing has a rare balance between enormous kinetic energy and substantial gravity.

Yeol Eum performs a widely eclectic and rich repertoire—ranging from Bach and Mozart to German and Russian Romantics, and the twentieth century music of Gershwin, Szymanowski, Ligeti, and Salonen. She performs as a soloist and with the world’s leading orchestras.
