Soprano Lim Sun-hye's 20th Anniversary Solo Concert 'MORGEN' Celebrating Her European Stage Debut

On October 10th at Art Center Incheon

[Asia Economy Reporter Byunghee Park] Soprano Lim Sun-hye will hold a solo concert titled 'MORGEN' on October 10 at Art Center Incheon to commemorate the 20th anniversary of her European stage debut.

In the concert, Lim Sun-hye plans to form an ensemble with fellow artists she has met through stages and recordings, presenting a variety of pieces including art songs and arias.

Lim Sun-hye shared her thoughts ahead of the concert, saying, "The title 'MORGEN' means 'tomorrow' in German. Over the past 20 years of working in Europe, I have always had domestic fans and colleagues who have passionately supported me, which has given me the strength to pursue my dreams without getting tired. I want to perform with the heart of gifting a happy 'tomorrow' to all those people, and I hope to be remembered as an artist who looks forward to tomorrow."

Lim Sun-hye debuted on the European stage at the age of 23 while studying in Germany in 1999, when she was selected by the master of early music conducting, Philippe Herreweghe. From 2001, she was a full-time member of the Hanover State Opera in Germany for three years, and began to gain serious attention on the European stage, being named a "noteworthy newcomer of the 2001-2002 season" by the prestigious European opera magazine Opernwelt. She has collaborated with world-class conductors such as Manfred Honeck, Ren? Jacobs, Fabio Biondi, William Christie, Sigiswald Kuijken, Zubin Mehta, Riccardo Chailly, and Iv?n Fischer, performing with leading orchestras worldwide.

Her solo album 'Orpheus,' planned by the renowned record label Harmonia Mundi as the first by an East Asian vocalist, received the 'Elly Ameling Award' at the French Golden Orpheus ceremony. Recently, she also released a Baroque solo album titled 'Didone abbandonata.'

Tickets for 'MORGEN' will go on sale in July.
