Special thank you to Trinity Wall Street for asking me to be a part of their Comfort at One series. For them I did a little Telemann and recruited help from my quarantine family. You can watch the video here >

A tribute to New York in Chuncheon, with special guest Sami Merdinian
“Astral’s January 25 concert will place the spotlight on violinist Katie Hyun in a program that pairs modern works with soul mates from the Baroque period.”
“Soloist Katie Hyun was marvelous, bowing the melodies in the best Romantic tradition. At times she made me think of the passionate sweep of Heifetz; at other times of the precisely tempered musicality of Joshua Bell. She maintained a limpid tone throughout her range; her upper register mingling with the celesta’s high notes evoked faery magic.”
“It begins with a steady, foreboding beat, over which a violinist (here the excellent Katie Hyun) weaves a sinuous melody that guides the chorus into the introduction of the saint.”
