Sunwook Kim (piano)

When Sunwook Kim won the Leeds International Piano Competition in 2006, he was not only the youngest winner in 40 years (he was then just 18), but he was also the competition's first Asian winner. After a first half of Bach and Beethoven, he gives us his interpretation of Mussorgsky's epic journey around a Russian art gallery.
