Suyeon Kang and Laurence Mattheson

Hayes Street Studio presents Korean-Australian violinist Suyeon Kang with Australian pianist Laurence Mattheson in recital.

In a rare opportunity for Australian audiences, Suyeon returns to Sydney from her current home base in Berlin, where she enjoys versatile international performance career, having been recently appointed as the newest member of the renowned Belcea Quartet. Suyeon has been praised for her "incredible maturity…more than mere playing of the music but an appreciation and understanding its possibilities, and brought out qualities of ecstasy, pathos and introspection – at times appearing to be a human, animal or avian presence, intruding into the landscape or soaring above it.’ (National Business Review, NZ).

She is joined by pianist Laurence Mattheson, one of Australia’s most exciting young musicians, who is in demand across the country as a soloist, chamber musician and collaborative pianist.
