Programme Note

Cello soloist Sooyeon Lee began by learning the piano at the age of four, changing to the cello two years later. She received her education and training in Korea and Japan. While completing her Bachelor of Music at Yonsei University under Sung-Won Yang, she attended master-classes given by Professor Jo Cole, who encouraged her to study with her at the Royal Academy of Music, London. There she achieved Distinction in her Master of Arts in Cello Performance and was awarded the Dip.RAM for outstanding performance in her Final Recital in 2016. Since September of this year she has been back at the Royal Academy studying with Jo Cole and Josephine Knight towards an Advanced Diploma.
She has been winning prizes since her early teens in numerous prestigious competitions, mainly in the Far East. She was awarded a Leverhulme Trust postgraduate scholarship for 2015/16, and most recently she was the winner of the May Mukle/Douglas Cameron Cello Sonata Prize in the UK.
