Season VI: “Melodies of Hán (한)”

Trio Hán
Jeewon Park, piano
Sunmi Chang, violin
Nina Lee, cello

Inspired by the Korean concept of hán—a profound blend of longing, resilience, and hope—this program weaves together Czech masterworks, a newly commissioned trio, and the timeless folk song Arirang. From Novák's lyrical introspection to Dvořák's passionate Piano Trio in F minor, the concert celebrates music's power to express shared human emotion across cultures and generations.
