Classical music fans in Salmon Arm will get the opportunity to enjoy the stylings of two international pianists this month.
Professional musicians Ju Yeon Shin and Euy Jon Lee will be travelling from Korea to perform a variety of classical compositions on matched pianos.
The concert will take place at 8 p.m. Saturday, May 24 and at 2 p.m. Sunday, May 25 at First United Church.
The theme of the concert, which will feature classical compositions from Bach to Bennet on two grand pianos, is “Enjoy” as it is meant to be relaxing, welcoming and fun.
The program will include Bach’s Jesu, joy of Man’s Desiring, Handel’s Passacailla, Schubert’s Fantasie in F major D.940 op103, Pouleng’s Capriccio. Both pianists have spent time training and performing in Italy, Germany and Seoul.
While they are in Salmon Arm, Shin and Lee will also be available to teach music students and teachers of all skill levels through their masterclass program. The program will run on May 19 and 23.
