ARTIST PROFILE 피아니스트 임윤찬 Pianist Yunchan Lim
“A
one-in-a-million talent.” – Dallas Morning News
“I made up my mind that I will live my
life only for the sake of music, and I decided that I will give up everything
for music… I want my music to become deeper, and if that desire reaches the
audience, I’m satisfied.” – Yunchan Lim
Since becoming the youngest person to
ever win gold at the Van Cliburn International Piano Competition at the age of
18 in 2022, Yunchan Lim’s ascent to international stardom has
been meteoric. His performances showcase a “magical ability” and a “natural,
instinctive quality” (La Scena) that astounds listeners around the
world. Marin Alsop, who conducted the 2022 Cliburn Final said, “Yunchan is that
rare artist who brings profound musicality and prodigious technique organically
together.”
His audacious performance of
Liszt’s Transcendental Etudes“created a buzz throughout the
international piano community” (Gramophone),and his appearance
with Rachmaninov’s Piano Concerto No. 3delivered the defining
moment of competition, as one critic noted: “The applause that followed was
endless: a star had emerged before our eyes” (Seen and Heard International).
The video of Yunchan’s Rachmaninov performance trended globally on YouTube in
the days after and has now become the most-watched version of that piece on the
platform, amassing well over 10 million views. The New York Times later listed
it as one of the Top 10 Classical Music Performances of 2022.
In the year following his Cliburn win,
Yunchan made successful orchestral debuts with the New York Philharmonic at the
Lincoln Center, and Los Angeles Philharmonic at the Hollywood Bowl, as well as
Chicago Symphony, Lucerne Symphony, KBS Symphony, and Tokyo Symphony
orchestras, among others; and recital debuts at the Wigmore Hall, Het
Concertgebouw, Suntory Hall, and Seoul Arts Center.
His 23/24 season highlights include
orchestral debuts with the Royal Philharmonic, Munich Philharmonic, Hungarian
Radio Symphony, Boston Symphony, Baltimore Symphony, Seoul Philharmonic, and
Sendai Philharmonic orchestras, Orchestre philharmonique de Radio France, and
Orchestre de Paris. Recital highlights include appearances at Carnegie Hall,
Gewandhaus Leipzig, Verbier Festival, Gstaad Festival, and Società dei Concerti
di Milano among other major stages.
Yunchan Lim is an exclusive Decca
Classics artist. In April 2024, Yunchan releases his debut studio album, Chopin
Études Opp.10 & 25, worldwide on Decca Classics. His previous releases
include his Billboard-charting Van Cliburn performance of Liszt’s Transcendental
Études(Steinway & Sons, 2023); Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No. 5
“Emperor”(Deutsche Grammophon, 2022); and is featured on KBS’s 2020
Young Musicians of Koreaalbum, performing a selection of works by Beethoven
and Liszt. Yunchan was named an Apple Music Classical Global Ambassador in
January 2024.
Born in Siheung, Korea, Yunchan Lim
began piano lessons at age 7. He entered the Music Academy of the Seoul Arts
Center the next year, and quickly became immersed in his musical studies. He
auditioned for and was accepted into the Korea National Institute for the
Gifted in Arts at age 13, where he met his teacher and mentor, Minsoo Sohn. A
year later, in 2018, he captured international attention when he won both
Second Prize and the Chopin Special Award in his first competition: the
Cleveland International Piano Competition for Young Artists. That same year, he
won both the Third and Audience prizes at the Cooper International
Competition, which also provided him
the opportunity to perform with The Cleveland Orchestra. In 2029, aged only 15,
he became the youngest person to win Korea’s IsangYun International
Competition, where he also took home two special prizes.
Following two years at the Korea
National University of Arts, Yunchan is currently studying at the New England
Conservatoire in Boston with his teacher Minsoo Sohn.
