Clara-Jumi Kang
Esteemed violinist Clara-Jumi Kang presents a solo repertoire to dazzle and delight.
Winner of the 2010 Indianapolis International Violin Competition, Clara-Jumi Kang has appeared with many of the world’s greatest orchestras. Her playing has been described as ‘dazzling’ (Bachtrack) and is celebrated for its ‘sensitivity and rapt focus’ (The Arts Desk).
Born in Germany to a musical family, Kang took up the violin at the age of three and made her concerto debut with Hamburg Symphony at only five years old. Since then, she has established an award-winning career as a soloist, performing with orchestras across Europe and Asia.
Kang has released several solo albums, most recently performing all ten of Beethoven’s violin sonatas with ‘constant poise’ (The Strad). Her Festival recital features virtuoso solo works by JS Bach, Eugène Ysaÿe (the ‘King of the Violin’) and Nathan Milstein.
