Caroline Kang (New York, 1980) is an American concert and Baroque cellist. Her playing has been described as “particularly distinguished” by De Volkskrant and “sincere and nuanced” by ''The Washington Post''. She has performed as a soloist and chamber musician at major venues and festivals including the Library of Congress, the Kennedy Center, Edinburgh Festival, Bachfest Leipzig, Thüringen Bachwochen, Festival d'Aix-en-Provence and Música Antigua de Barcelona.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://webkal.bitbaum.de/tmn_floater_pr_detail?p_tmn_id=43484 )〕 She has worked alongside other specialist, early music musicians including William Christie, Andrew Lawrence-King, Nicholas McGeegan and Lawrence Cummings. Her younger generation recital partners include Mahan Esfahani, Shuann Chai and Petra Somlai. She performs on all of the various forms of the 18th century cello (large, mid-size and piccolo), utilising authentic historical techniques as the basis for her playing approach, including both overhand and underhand bowing. In 2011 she was a featured soloist at the Holland Festival of Early Music Utrecht in concertos by Vivaldi, performing on a number of different types and sizes of 18th century cello. She studied the modern and baroque cello at the Eastman School of Music (Rochester, NY), Longy School of Music (Boston), Ithaca College School of Music, Cornell University and at the Royal Conservatory of The Hague, studying principally with Steven Doane, Elizabeth Simkin, Phoebe Carrai and Jaap ter Linden. During her studies, she took masterclasses with Yo-Yo Ma, Wieland Kuijken, Vittorio Ghielmi, and Anner Bijlsma, worked closely with leading early music scholars such as Neal Zaslaw and Malcolm Bilson, has received coaching from Lucy van Dael, Vera Beths, Enrico Gatti, Marc Destrubé, and Rainer Zipperling, and attended major summer music courses including Bowdoin, Aspen and Vancouver. For her studies in the Netherlands she was awarded the Huygens Scholarship from the Dutch government. At the Eastman School of Music she was a Shouse Foundation Fellow. As well as performing seminal solo cello works, such as the Bach Suites and the Haydn Concertos, she also presents lesser known repertoire to her audiences. Her recent solo, world-première recording of music by the 18th century The Hague composer Zappa for Cello and Orchestra with conductor Simon Murphy and The New Dutch Academy for PENTATONE〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.pentatonemusic.com/ )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://itunes.apple.com/us/artist/caroline-kang/id348433135 )〕 has been most enthusiastically received by the international music press, with Early Music America saying “Cellist Caroline Kang brings out the warmth of the solo lines”〔Early Music America, Summer 2010〕 and the Dutch press describing the album as "a total eyeopener".〔Haagse Courant, October 2009〕 Caroline is also a committed music educator and has given workshops and masterclasses on topics including 18th century cello repertoire, technique and performance practices at music institutions throughout Europe, Asia, and North America, including The Royal Conservatorium in The Hague, The Royal College of Music in Stockholm, ISI Jogjakarta, Indonesia, and Princeton University in the U.S. ==References== 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Caroline Kang」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
