At just 13 years old, violinist Yoojun Curtis Lee is already emerging as an exceptional young talent. During this special Friends Concert, he will perform a half recital of approximately 40 minutes, featuring works by Beethoven and Waxman. Yoojun currently studies at The Juilliard School Pre-College in New York City and recently received awards at international violin competitions in Singapore and Brussels. Pianist and presenter of the afternoon is Ruben Plazier, who will accompany Yoojun throughout the recital.
The programme includes Beethoven’s Violin Sonata No. 1 in D major and Waxman’s virtuosic Carmen Fantasie, based on themes from Bizet’s opera Carmen.
