SHES BACCKKKK!!!!

Words can't express how excited I am that my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE violinist is back on the stage. After taking a break from her 175 World Concert Tour, Sarah Chang performed with the Pacific Symphony this week. Chang played Felix Mendelssohn's Violin Concerto in E Minor. The orchestra played to bring awareness to global warming; they played a series of works inspired by sustainability such as James N. Howard's "I Will Plant a Tree" under the direction of Carl St. Clair. While walking on the red carpet, Chang announced that she is working on a new album that will be coming out in the beginnning of next year. I CANT WAIT!!!!!




Child prodigy Sarah Chang made her first debut with the New York Philharmonic and Philadelphia Orchestra in 1989. By age ten she was enrolled in the Juilliard School of Music where she studied with popular teacher, Dororthy Delay. With Delay's help Chang was performing throughout the world by eleven years old. Born in Philadelphia to Korean immigrant parents, Chang worked to develop her skills and by age fifteen she was signed EMG records. Chang has been signed to them since and now at only thirty years old she is one of the most popular violinist and most recognize musician in the world. Check out this video of Chang at her finest.
