About Beomjae Kim
Throughout the centuries, the flute has captured the admiration of countless composers due to its pure, soaring timbre, bird-like agility, and mellowness. Its crystalline tone can express everything from gentle lyricism to vibrant brilliance. Despite its beauty, writing for an unaccompanied flute presents a unique challenge, as the instrument alone cannot provide harmony. However, many skilled composers have risen to this challenge, discovering ways to convey their distinct inner voices through the flute’s sound.
These composers lived during different stylistic periods and drew inspiration from various sources. Whether rooted in baroque elegance, romantic expressiveness, or modern innovation, they succeeded in creating solo flute works that showcase the instrument’s versatility and have become essential contributions to flute literature.
Join Beomjae Kim for an afternoon recital highlighting the beauty of the flute.
