Myung Whun Chung:

Beethoven: Symphony No. 9

Deutsche Grammophon presents the second Beethoven recording from the Seoul Philharmonic Orchestra and Myung-Whun Chung, Beethoven: Symphony No. 9, the live recording from the 2012 sold-out concert in Seoul.  One of the most popular works in the repertoire, this is the live recording from the completely sold out concert in 2012 in Seoul (with a scream of Bravo at the end). The soloists for the 4th movement are soprano Kathleen Kim, who made her Metropolitan Opera debut in 2007 and regularly performs across the US and Europe; mezzo-soprano Songmi Yang, who received excellent reviews on her Wiener Staatsoper debut in Lucia di Lammermoor; tenor Yosep Kang, currently a soloist at the Deutsche Oper Berlin; and bass-baritone Samuel Youn, the first-ever Korean/Asian to successfully star as title role on Der fliegende Holländer in Bayreuth in 2012.

Myung Whun Chung:

Piano

The ECM New Series debut of Myung Whun Chung features the widely-celebrated conductor as pianist. Recorded at Venice's Teatro La Fenice in July 2013, the album marks the first occasion that Chung has recorded solo. In a performer's note, he describes the album as a gift for younger listeners, as well as a personal thanks to those who share his love of this music. Chung's touch and sensitivity for dynamics cast a new light on familiar pieces – by Debussy, Chopin, Beethoven, Tchaikovsky, Schubert, Schumann and Mozart – as they are experienced in a gently flowing sequence which also serves to highlight affinities between the compositions.
