Karen Tanaka, Unsuk Chin

Karen Tanaka's Crystalline II - played by Signe Bakke - and a recent performance of Unsuk Chin's award-winning Violin Concerto, featuring the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ SO and Jennifer Koh.

Karen Tanaka's beautiful yet brittle piano piece Crystalline echoes Messiaen's piano writing at a distance but conjures an inner-world of reflections and restraint. And from the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½'s 2011 Total Immersion events, a performance of Unsuk Chin's Grawemeyer-award-winning Violin Concerto, played by Jennifer Koh and the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Symphony Orchestra.
