VC GIVEAWAY | Win 1 of 5 VC Artist Bomsori Kim's New CD: "Violin on Stage"

"I wanted to bring that special spirit of poetry and drama to listeners through my instrument, which can sing freely in these wonderful pieces”

The Violin Channel, in conjunction with Deutsche Grammophon, is this week giving away five personally autographed copies of VC Artist Bomsori Kim's "Violin on Stage" CD.

The CD features pieces from Wieniawski, Tchaikovsky, Waxman, Gluck, Massenet, and Saint-Saëns.

"The album 'Violin on Stage' is about music for opera and ballet," Bomsori told The Violin Channel.

"I always think that instruments, especially the violin, should be trying to sing like the human voice — while dance should be about the pulse of our heartbeat. These two elements cannot be neglected or separated and are the most essential components in music for me.

"The repertoire I chose is deeply related to these two themes, arranged or composed for violin and orchestra. The operatic repertoire is the perfect choice to realize my dream of singing through the instrument, which in turn allowed me to achieve the utmost freedom of expression.

"The process of recording an album in the pandemic was totally dramatic. We had to postpone quite a few times because of the unstable situation. When we were allowed to finally make music together, people involved in this project were totally enthusiastic and the musicians played like it was the last day of their lives. We were so desperate to make music and share it with people.

"I hope listeners will take all the energy, passion, and love for the music we had felt during recording sessions. I can proudly say that this is why all the tracks of the album sound so vividly like listening to a live concert."
