Hope you can join us in this opportunity to experience the special sound of Korean spirit.
Violinist Soh-Hyun Park Altino is highly regarded as a gifted teacher and a versatile performer of solo and chamber music. Lauded for her “poise and precision,” her engagements have taken her to Brazil, Colombia, Germany, Korea, Venezuela and throughout the United States, and to festivals such as Festival de Campos do Jordão in Brazil, Academy y Festival Nuevo Mundo in Venezuela, Masterworks Festival, and Brevard Music Center, where she has collaborated with many renowned chamber musicians.
Newly appointed to Wheaton College Conservatory of Music, Altino served on the faculty at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, where she received the Phillip R. Certain-Gary D. Sandefur Distinguished Faculty Award and the Vilas Associates research grant, and she previously taught at the University of Memphis for fourteen years. The experiences and insights she gained from the overuse injuries during her student years have continually fueled her passion and inquisitiveness for teaching. Deeply committed to teacher training and continuing education, she has presented professional development sessions and clinics for violin teachers and their students, including a talk, “Uncovering Tales of Violinist’s Left-Hand Technique,” at a recent ASTA National Conference.
A native of Korea, Altino grew up in a musical family. At age sixteen, she came to the U.S. and studied with Violaine Melançon at the Peabody Institute where she also developed a keen interest in music theory. Her major chamber music coaches include Anne Epperson and the members of the Peabody Trio and the Juilliard, Concord, Cavani, and Cleveland Quartets. She completed her bachelor’s, master’s and the doctor of musical arts degrees in violin performance at the Cleveland Institute of Music, where she was a student and teaching assistant to Donald Weilerstein. Her recent research activities include her trailblazing work in interpreting Korean traditional sanjo on the violin and promoting new compositions with roots in the traditional music.
