Much Ado, the solo debut album by Korean American violinist Danbi Um is as striking for the young musician's choice of "old world" repertoire as her virtuoso interpretations and the sumptuous sound she draws from her 1683 "ex-Petschek" Nicolo Amati violin. Danbi conjures memories of a musical Golden Age, a sensibility instilled in her by a roster of internationally renowned tutors. The title track by Eric Korngold's Shakespeare-inspired suite sits alongside arrangements of works by fellow Austro-Germanic composers Fritz Kreisler and Richard Wagner. Hungarian gipsy music infuses compositions by Johannes Brahms, Jeno Hubay and Erno Dohnányi, juxtaposed with music by Jewish composers Ernst Bloch, Joseph Achron and Leo Zeitlin. A multiple award winner - Danbi has taken top prizes at the Yehudi Menuhin and Naumberg International Violin Competitions, and Astral Artists' Auditions - she has been praised by The Strad as an "utterly dazzling" artist with a "marvelous show of superb technique." A resident of New York City, Danbi performs regularly with the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center, and further afield with the Chamber Orchestra of Philadelphia, Washington D.C.'s Phillips Collection, and the Rockport, Moab, Saratoga Performing Arts and Santa Fe Music Festivals.
