Description:
The Virginia Tech School of Performing Arts continues their Concert Artist Series with Pianist Hee-Kyung Juhn and Violinist Magdalensa Ryszkowski on Friday, March 21, 2025 inside the Squires Recital Salon on the campus of Virginia Tech.

Pianist Hee-Kyung Juhn and violinist Magdalensa Ryszkowski perform a program of works by Brahms, Schubert, Liszt and Fauré. Enjoy piano music by composers representing the Romanticism: Brahms, Schubert, and Liszt. On the second half of the program, guest violinist Magdalene Ryszkowski will join for the magnificent French Romantic music written by Gabriel Fauré, Sonata for Violin and Piano.

Magdalena Ryszkowski is a Polish violinist who spent most of her adult life in U. S. She has performed in venues such as New York’s Weill Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall, where she made her debut in January of 2002, NY Kosciuszko Foundation, Paul Recital Hall, Chopin Music Academy, Warsaw Philharmonic, and Baltic Philharmonic, to name a few, as well as numerous festivals throughout the United States and Europe.

Pianist Hee-Kyung Juhn was described as “subtle, technically brilliant, a top notch, superb pianist” by New York Concert Review, “sensitive and imaginative” by the American Record Guide. Upon the release of her Bach’s Goldberg Variations recording, Santa Barbara News-Press declared “We have a strong new Goldberg contender in the marvelous Hee-Kyung,” and Gramophone noted “her acumen for voice-leading lends impressive clarity.” She is an instructor of piano in the Virginia Tech School of Performing Arts.
