Her Rachmaninoff Piano Concerto No. 3 at the time of her victory became the talk of the town, catapulting her to stardom and winning her many fans. It attracted the attention of non-classical audiences around the world. The video of that performance has now been viewed more than 12 million times, making it the most viewed performance of the work on YouTube. It has been described as \"the K-Pop of classical music\" (The New York Times) due to its popularity.\n\n\n\nYoon-Chang Lim is a 19-year-old native of Shiheung, South Korea, who began playing piano at the age of 7. She won the Cleveland International Piano Competition for Young Pianists in 2018 and became the youngest winner of the Yoon-I-Sang International Music Competition in South Korea at the age of 15. She recently moved to Boston with her long-time teacher, Minsoo Song, and continues her studies at the New England Conservatory of Music.The orchestra currently fills concert halls around the world and has been invited to perform with some of the most prestigious orchestras and festivals.\n\n\n\nThe album includes Chopin's \"12 Exercises\" Op.10 \u0026amp; Op.25. \"For me, Chopin is a composer whose music reminds me of the past. I wanted the album cover to evoke a sense of solitude and nostalgia, and to make people feel as if they were encountering an old photograph\" (Lim, Yoon-Chan). The album cover photo was shot on film to create the atmosphere Yoon-Chang wanted, reminiscent of the pianists of Decca's golden era from the 1960s onward, such as Vladimir Ashkenazy, Clifford Curzon, and Radu Lupu, who all played on the original Decca requested one of the LP logos.\n\n\n\nMusic was born to communicate. I want to share my ideas with my audience and hear what they have to say.And this is probably one of the most beautiful things in the world.\"--Yun-Chang Lim\n\nHe has the potential to become the pianist of a generation, combining astonishing virtuosity with profound interpretation.\"--The New Yorker\n\nYoon-Chang Lim's playing is so good, you'd think you were dreaming.\"--The Times\n\n(UNIVERSAL MUSIC\/IMS)\n\n\n\nScheduled to be recorded\n\nChopin: 1-12) 12 Exercises O\n\n1-12) 12 Exercises Op.10 (No.1 in C major, No.2 in A minor, No.3 in E major \"Farewell\", No.4 in C sharp minor, No.5 in G flat major \"Black Key\", No.6 in E flat minor, No.7 in C major, No.8 in F major, No.9 in F minor, No.10 in A flat major, No.11 in E flat major, No.12 in C minor \"Revolution\"),\n\n\n\n13-24) 12 Exercises Op.25 (No.1 in A-flat major, \"Aeolian Harp\" \/ No.2 in F minor \/ No.3 in F major \/ No.4 in A minor \/ No.5 in E minor \/ No.6 in G-sharp minor \/ No.7 in C-sharp minor \/ No.8 in D flat major \/ No.9 in G flat major, \"Butterfly\" \/ No.10 in B minor \/ No.11 in A minor, \"Withering Wood\" \/ No.12 in C minor The Ocean\")\n\n\n\nPerformers\n\nLim, Yoon-Chang (Piano)\n\nRecorded at Henry Wood Hall, London, December 17~20, 2023\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Decca","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48341123596577,"sku":"28948701223","price":76.0,"currency_code":"MYR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/28948701223.jpg?v=1710673471","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/en-my\/products\/28948701223","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
