Meet Siwoo Kim, Violinist

SIWOO KIM is an “incisive” and “compelling” (Zachary Woolfe, The New York Times) violinist who plays with “stylistic sensitivity and generous tonal nuance” (John von Rhein, Chicago Tribune). Siwoo performs as soloist and chamber musician, and he is the co-founding artistic director of VIVO Music Festival in his hometown of Columbus, Ohio.

Since his Carnegie Hall debut with the Juilliard Orchestra, he has gone on to perform as soloist with orchestras in four different continents. As chamber musician, he performs at festivals such as the Marlboro Music Festival, collaborating with revered artists including Mitsuko Uchida, Denes Varjon and Susan Graham. An advocate of new music, Siwoo premiered and recorded Samuel Adler’s only violin concerto on Linn Records and VIVO Music Festival annually co-commissions new chamber music works with Paris-based Ensemble Intercontemporain. This season, Siwoo recorded and released the premiere recording of Michael Torke’s “Last” on Ecstatic Records with the East Coast Chamber Orchestra (ECCO). 
 
Siwoo received his undergraduate and graduate degrees from The Juilliard School where he studied with Robert Mann and Donald Weilerstein. He went on to complete a two-year fellowship at Carnegie Hall’s Ensemble Connect program.
