Saehyun Kim is truly a piano phenom, having won First Prize at France’s prestigious Long-Thibaud competition in 2025 and able to perform the most challenging works from the piano repertoire in a single evening.

The Seoul-born musician is barely out of his teens, but, in the words of Crescendo Magazine, impresses with “both his technical and emotional mastery,” a maturity that has earned him invitations to the world’s most important festivals. For this concert, he has chosen a programme that reveals his marked taste for French music: three silken works by Fauré set the stage for Ravel’s formidable Gaspard de la Nuit, in its three fantastically magical movements, before Chopin’s 12 Études, Opus 25, fill the Auditorium with a poetry and virtuosity that simply must be heard to be believed.
