HAHN-BIN, Violin

Warning: This is not your typical violin recital. HAHN-BIN has reenvisioned the classical music recital, and it is fierce. Adding to his mixed repertoire program of familiar classical and contemporary works will be theater and performance art, costume changes and lighting, and mesmerizing youth and vitality. Imagine the love-child of fiery violinist Paganini and super-diva Grace Jones and you start to understand HAHN-BINs brilliance. He is a Julliard-educated special protégé of legendary violinist Itzhak Perlman. Still in his early 20s, he has taken first prize in the prestigious Young Concert Artists International auditions; made his Carnegie Hall debut; and has performed at other prestigious venues, including Auditorium du Louvre in Paris, the Hammer Museum in Los Angeles, the Kennedy Center, the Konzerthaus in Berlin and New York’s MOMA as part of an Andy Warhol exhibition.

HAHN-BIN's Centre College residency is made possible by the Annaliese Soros Educational Residency Program.
