Yeol Eum Son - Modern Times (2016)

Classical pianist Son Yeol-eum has returned to the limelight with her first album in eight years, “Modern Times.” It features a wide range of music from jazzy razzmatazz swing tunes to sounds that remind listeners of a dark and desolate night. This musical theme is something I have always wanted to pursue because I think this style of music represents such important and influential times in our history,” said Son, during a press conference held at the Stradeum concert hall in Seoul on Wednesday. “All of the music selected from the album is from the early 20th century, an era in which I think saw a big shift in both world history and music culture,” she added.
