GIO is delighted to collaborate Hyelim Kim, a prolific awarding improviser composer, and solo performer of the Korean daegeum flute. Renowned for her innovative intercultural and interdisciplinary approaches rooted in Korean traditional music. As a daegeum virtuoso, she has been recognized as an ‘emerging artist’ by the Korean Arts Council and a Kumho Young Artist. Kim has performed with Nils Frahm on BBC Radio 3’s Late Junction and premiered a daegeum concertino with the Orchestre de chambre de Paris. Her accolades include the Gold Medal at the Korean National Daegeum Competition and 1st prize at the Korean National Chongro Music Competition. She has graced prestigious festivals worldwide, such as the London Jazz Festival, Melbourne Women’s Festival, and China International Bamboo Flute Festival.
