BIOGRAPHY Hai-Kyung Suh dazzled the international music scene by winning the prestigious Busoni International Competition as a teen-ager. Her New York recital debut at Alice Tully Hall five years later was hailed byThe New York Times as "a propulsive and exciting performance, built block by sonic block with the structual command of a musical architect." A Korean native, Ms. Suh has appeared as soloist with numerous renowned orchestras including the Philadelphia Orchestra, the London Philharmonia, the Moscow State Symphony, the Moscow Philharmonic, the Pittsburgh Symphony, the Frankfurt Radio Symphony, the Berlin Radio Symphony Orchestra and the Slovak Radio Symphony among others. Known for her
astonishing stamina and power at the keyboard, Ms. Suh was one
of the first Korean pianists to establish an international career.
Highlights of her career include a tour of the Far East with
the Philadelphia Orchestra under the baton of Riccardo Muti,
a performance with the Pittsburgh Symphony and Charles Dutoit
which one reviewer described as "imperiously romantic,"
and a performance with the Berlin Radio Symphony which the Berliner
Morgenpost described as "in the grand manner, full of bravura,
fire and delicacy." In 1988, Ms. Suh played the Prokofieff
Third Concerto with the Moscow Philharmonic at the Seoul Olympic
Festival. The following year, she was re-engaged to play the
Rachmaninoff Third Concerto with the orchestra.
