Korean prestigious arts magazine Gaeksuk (Korean: 객석; means Auditorium) listed him among Korea's "9 leading conductors" in 2019.[1] He was also named the Artist of the Year by the Committee of Korean Arts Critics in 2018.
Biography
[edit]Lee was born in Seoul. He began to study violin at the age of 5 and served a youth orchestra in his town as a concertmaster for nearly a decade.[2] During this time, he developed an interest in conducting and composition. He entered Seoul National University (SNU) and took his Bachelor and Master's degrees for Conducting. After his graduation, he moved to Vienna to study with Simeon Pironkoff, a renowned composer and conducting pedagogue at the University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna (MDW). While a student in Vienna, he was also chosen for the recipient of conducting workshop of the Wiener Symphoniker. Furthermore, he studied orchestration with composer and professor Richard Dünser at the Arts University Graz. Later he attended historic conducting course at the Accademia Musicale Chigiana Italy, where he met his mentor Maestro Daniele Gatti.
Lee completed (2022) the "Beethoven Symphonies and Piano Concertos cycle" with top-notch pianists and the Orchestral Ensemble Seoul at the Seoul Arts Center, and recently he made his opera debut in Europe at the Siena International Music Festival with Rossini "Il figlio per azzardo" (regia: Lorenzo Mariani) at the Teatro comunale dei Rinnovati. He has been nominated to several prominent conducting competitions such as Besançon, Malko and Rachmaninoff Competitions and conducted the Wiener Symphoniker, the Prague Philharmonia, the Danish Radio Symphony Orchestra and many others.
His recordings include Beethoven Symphony No. 3 and Mozart Symphony No. 29 with the Orchestral Ensemble Seoul.[3][4]
Orchestral Ensemble Seoul
[edit]In 2014, some of graduates of the Seoul National University founded an alumni chamber orchestra which initially was intended for a small number of concerts yearly on a part-time basis. They appointed Lee as their first music director. He grew the orchestra rapidly and mainstreamed the orchestra into the Korean classical music scene. He debuted the orchestra at the Seoul Arts Center and has consistently invited soloists of international repute such as Bomsori Kim, Yeol Eum Son, to name a few.[5] After changing its name to the Orchestral Ensemble Seoul (OES) in 2016, Lee and the OES have done many significant achievements like Complete Beethoven Symphonies and Piano Concertos at the Seoul Arts Center. Now the orchestra is on Schumann cycle. In 2020 the orchestra became the Governmental Arts Organization designated by the Seoul City, and has attracted attention not only on the Korean stages but also on the Far-Eastern stages.
