Praised by The Washington Post as “a deeply gifted musician” with “an exceptional sense of lyricism” and “near-flawless technique”, cellist Hee-Young Lim has quickly established herself as one of the most charismatic, captivating and swiftly rising stars of the younger generation.
Following initial studies in her hometown of Seoul at the Korean National University, where - at the age of 15 - she was one of their youngest students, Hee-Young’s thirst for further learning took her to such institutions as the New England Conservatory in Boston, the Hochschule für Musik Franz Liszt in Weimar and the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique de Paris.
Hee-Young is in great demand as a soloist on the international stage. Recent concerto appearances have included those with such renowned orchestras as the Budapest Radio Symphony, Houston Symphony, KBS Symphony, Warsaw Philharmonic and the Beijing Symphony Orchestra.
In 2018, Hee-Young released her debut album of French Cello Concertos with the London Symphony Orchestra, recorded at Abbey Road Studios, London, for Sony Classical. This recording was received with great critical acclaim, drawing praise for her “exceptionally refined, silkily lyrical sound” (Gramophone Magazine), and leading one reviewer to exclaim that “Lim outshines her contemporaries in the warmth of expressiveness of her tone, which is of truly rare beauty” (BBC Music Magazine).
