Yunchan Lim launched onto the international music stage when he was 14. He won second prize and the Chopin Special Award in his first-ever competition, the Cleveland International Piano Competition for Young Artists in 2018. That same year, he stood out as the youngest participant in the Cooper International Competition, where he won the third prize and the audience prize, which provided the opportunity for him to perform with the Cleveland Orchestra. 2019 meant more accolades, when, at the age of 15, he was the youngest to win Korea’s IsangYun International Competition, where he also took home two special prizes.
Now just 18, he has performed across South Korea-including with the Korean Orchestra Festival, Korea Symphony, Suwon Philharmonic, and Busan Philharmonic Orchestras, among others-as well as in Madrid, at the invitation of the Korea Cultural Center in Spain. He also participated in the recording of “2020 Young Musicians of Korea,” organized by the Korean Broadcasting System and released that November.
A native of Siheung, Yunchan currently studies at the Korea National University of Arts under Minsoo Sohn. Coming to Fort Worth, he says he is “looking forward to playing in front of the warmest and most passionate audience in the world.”

I have listened to this recording many times now. There are hundreds of comments available about the work Yunchan does, as well as interviews, newspaper reviews and listener comments about this and the subsequent versions he has made of it with other conductors. Comments about his relative youth, and his seemingly freakish ability are easy to find. In one interview he really supplies his own explanation for his work, claiming that all the answers lie in the music. And he is so right. Of course he has enormous technical skills as well as an incredible capacity for very hard work. I fancy his IQ , including its literary, emotional and musical components, is extraordinary, BUT HE ALSO EMPLOYS IT TO ITS FULL POTENTIAL as he approaches any musical composition. He reveres the composers themselves and also delves into their histories. So Yunchan doesn't need to be old, have huge life experience, be entranced or possessed in order to perform as well as he does. This also explains what he means by' improvisation' as he plays-he doesn't rest on his laurels between performances but rereads and reinterprets the composers' intentions as new insights are revealed from the music. Occasionally he embellishes scores slightly, very fittingly, where he feels it will enhance the work-make it clearer. It is therefore the composers' knowledge, insights, life-experiences, moods, and intentions he reads from their works and uses his wonderful talents to present them to us as clearly as he is able. They are the old souls, but Yunchan has it within his DNA and young life experience to make it his business to know and honour them. Thank you universe.
And I always call his style as "Yunchanism"! Absolutely Limarkable!
@@asianpearl1321 Funny! I enter Yunchan Land before bed each night. There are no limits to this Lim.
@@asianpearl1321 No limiting this Lim is there? Most of his work has that unique Yunchanesque touch

🎶🎵 just unbelievable 🎹
I am 79 and retired from a 55 year very busy studio singing career. I was raised in a very talented musical family, my mother was a concert pianist at 16 and my father had a legendary studio singing career. So music is my DNA and my soul. This performance is the absolute best I have ever experienced. God bless this brilliant young man ❤❤❤

Prior to the performance, the audience would have no idea that they were about to witness a historical performance of this music from a 18 year old pianist in a competition. Lucky people!
한없이 부러운 사람들이죠. 역사적인 그 자리에 관객이 되었다니!
Historical or not historical, that is something that only future can point out. But I agree about this interpretation as a quite wonderful one. The calm, the concentration.
The only performances comparable to this (or equal to this) are Bronfman, Argerich, Volodos and Kern. Maybe Sunwoo’s and Horowitz’s also come close.
@@staffanolofsson8201It's been just over a month since this video was uploaded and it has generated nearly six million views, far exceeding that of Horowitz, which had hitherto the highest number of views. Anne-Marie McDermott, one of the jurors of VC Competition this year says "I have played Rachmaninov 3rd. Never again. It now belongs to Yunchan". Cliburn webcast co-host and pianist Elizabeth Joy Roe called it a once-in-a-lifetime performance that left her nearly speechless. Many people who love this piece say this is one of the best renditions of this music. Time is not the only factor that determines whether or not a performance is historical. The greatness of the performance itself determines it. It's only my opinion. Thanks for your reply anyway.
@@chiragraju821 I like Bronfman's and Volodos's versions too.
I am still listening in 2024 and still mesmerized by this phenomenal transcendent young pianist. This will hit 15 mil views as the world discovers the incomparable talents of Yunchan Lim and the iconic Rach #3. Many thanks to Marin Alsop, Fort Worth Symphony Orchestra and The Cliburn for a timeless and rare global musical event. Be sure to see the Cliburn Intl Piano Competition in June, 2025!
42:32 kudos to the man who gave the loudest “BRAVOO!” Heard round the world 😆
The only downside to this video is that I can't listen to it as background music while working. I try to work while listening, but I can't stop myself from watching the video.

I am one of the biggest contributors of 12M views, but still watching this video 😊
He is not a genius; he is music itself.
I watched the competition live on TV, all pianists. Even before this performance, Mr Lim’s work made everyone else’s fade into the background. But then came the Rach 3 and I was mesmerised. I’ve been a pianist for 60 years, following so many different artists and attending so many concerts around the world. I’ve never heard anything as perfect and emotionally draining as this performance. Even now, after dozens of viewings, I’m still brought to tears. He’s a wonder. I am waiting eagerly for his first CD from Decca.
I absolutely love your comment and couldn’t possibly agree more. Peace and blessings

Cliburn should put a warning sign on this video. His performance is so beautiful that even breathing becomes difficult. Truly, he proved the greatness of music in just one hour.
No way out
I think what makes Yunchan special is how he manages to attack his way into the orchestra. Like 28:28 - notice the exchange from piano to orchestra. He blends in and out very seamlessly that made you think that the orchestra has been playing with him for years. He grabs attention subtly and gives it away just the same. He then proceeds with the iconic theme after the exchange. His plays are never overwhelming even on the strong parts. Such control and balance. His bravura never intimidates but envelopes the listener with a sense of sincerity and ease. Without unnecessary exaggerated ticks. I believe that Yunchan performs not to feed his ego but to play only for the sake of immaculate music making and nothing else. This what makes him stand out from the rest. His humble, grounded, and down to earth approach in music. Thank you Yunchan.
that's correct! When I watched and listened to other rendition of this piece as if there was a chaos of instruments. Without undermining the musicians but it seemed there was a struggle to catch up. I felt it was more of a noise than music. Unlike here that pianist Yunchan and the orchestra sync beautifully! Really love it so I keep comin' back.
This shows that Yunchan doesn't need to constantly seek for attention. Even when this is a Piano concerto and the piano is supposed to be the main instrument, he is humble enough to give away attention to the instrument that has the main melodic line. He is not afraid to be at the back and be "just" a supporting melody. This way, there is a real dynamics between the instruments in the orchestra. They talk, and it is not just the piano that speaks.
HARMONY AT THE FINEST!
God blessed this guy with incredible heart, hands and hair.
Also, good looks and huge talent!
Hair lolololololokolol
I swear he even plays his hair like an instrument.
머리 ㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎ
Yeah make sure to include hair. It’s playing too.
One of surprising qualities I find is that he's very charismatic. He knows how to work with orchestra yet in the end he's so in command of his interpretation; he somehow realized his vision; his interpretation; his sound with them.
Ikr. His teacher said that Yunchan is a very shy and introverted boy, but when he steps on the stage and goes into the realm of "music" Yunchan changes into a totally different person he even feels betrayed. haha
@@Dh-uj8pr indeed..
👏 👏 👏 I totally agree with you
Each time I watch and listen I end up crying and laughing at the same time ......
I throw up because it's so good!
I love the look he gives the orchestra at 28:50 as if to say: Are we ready? Yes? Let's go!
Absolutely unbelievable!!! Gone are the days, as western musicians believed that Asians did not have a deep musical feeling for the European classical music.

Music has no boundaries after all!!
@Kew Sepehr Mitsuko Uchida is at the end of her career.. Seiji Ozawa is in his 80s. So I think we can safely say there have been great interpreters of western classical music from Asia for a LONG time now. And as a life long appreciator of western classical music (I'm an american in my 60s), I'm overjoyed that not only has Korea been producing top-notch musicians, but that they have produced a pianist with such incredible power and feeling for Rachmaninov, one of my favorite composers. This guy plays like a young Ashkenazy. Just outstanding. The thing most people don't realize is that after World War 2 Korea was in a bad way economically because of the general state of the country after the occupation. You'll only really see larger numbers of top-flight musicians coming from places where there is a lot of economic success.. and Korea has definitely arrived at that place in the last 30 years or so. I couldn't be happier for them. Great country, outstanding people in general (I spent some time in Seoul on business)!
my only regret is that I wasn't sitting there witnessing this in person. I would have loved to experience this first hand. Those few people in the audience are insanely lucky to have seen this.

@@maumusa123 please share what you think. I have lots of thoughts but didn’t share here. 😊
@@ddestiny44 "The entire piano world is about to collectively lose their mind." Ben Laude said it all with this opening statement in his analysis video. The listeners who are not in “competition” with Yunchan were simply in awe, ecstatic, and marveled at Yunchan’s prodigious musicality. But the professionals, notably those who recorded Rach 3 or their live performances posted on KZhead, would be so embarrassed at theirs compared with Yunchan : They know how lousy their plays were and they cannot compete with Yunchan-no matter how hard they try-in million years. Yunchan is simply on another level that they cannot reach. The Rach 3 at Van Cliburn competition was an announcement to the world that the greatest living pianist was just born. Ben Laude and two guests (Van Cliburn jurors) confirmed it with their own words although they didn’t spell it out specifically-they needed to be diplomatic on that kind of statement.
I think soooo
@jjubilee, I agree with you. I didn't know anything about Yunchan Lim before the Cliburn competition.

Had the great pleasure of seeing him perform Rach II with the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra last night. Marin Alsop conducted. He was mesmerizing. Such beautiful dynamics. Power and sensitivity.
I personally thought that the piano could have been better, especially the base keys. But great dynamics from him nonetheless.

Must have been amazing to hear him in person. I’ve heard this piece dozens of times, and Rachmaninoff is my favorite composer. I’ve never heard a pianist, ever, who captured the heart of Rachmaninoff’s harmonic language with such precision and passion. His interpretation is everything I love about the composer distilled into a single, masterful performance. I am also in awe. There is nothing one can do but laugh in amazement.

When this young man is on stage making music, you suddenly realize that there is much more going on. Suddenly there is something incredible, perhaps even supernatural in the room that he brings into the presence of all listeners with his playing. It really is a miracle - performed by a young person.

How was it? I would assume Yunchan was at his absolute best with Marin Alsop. ❤ I hope they'd show us the full video...
MEE TOOO
He is eighteen!!! 😮
A year and a half after the competition, this boy has become a concert pianist, performing with the New York Philharmonic and the Munich Philharmonic. And he came to nec in Boston with Professor Minsu Son to continue his studies.
NEC and our Boston music community are very fortunate to have both Prof Minsoo Sohn and Yunchan Lim in our city. I am sure many prestigious music schools around the world must have offered Yunchan their full scholarship packages just to have him study in their schools. But he chose NEC because he would like to continue his study under his teacher. That says a lot about how much trust and respect Yunchan has for his Prof Sohn.
9:57, 10:24 love how he lets the orchestra take part in this musical dialogue rather than just highjack the melody!

In the pre-World War I years of Europe, amidst the social and political upheavals of the time, Crimean-Russian composer Sergei Rachmaninoff's genius did not initially receive the full recognition it deserved in New York, even up until the war's end in 1919. I believe it took pianist Yunchan Lim to truly convey the message Rachmaninoff embedded within his music - a message to humanity that transcended years. For too long, brilliant pianists focused on the Rach 3's technical virtuosity, overlooking its soul and deeper meaning. Yunchan, however, provided the key to unlocking the world of inner turmoil Rachmaninoff experienced during his composition. He masterfully revealed how beauty the life and world can be and how easily consumed by the darkness of human ambitions that pave the way conflict and devastation. Yunchan's fingertips brought to life the composer's longing and profound remembrance of his homeland, the war frenzy that gripped the people, and the ultimate societal devastation. With his performance, Rachmaninoff's emotions became tangible, visible, and palpable. It was a privilege and a joy to witness a young genius and his masterful interpretation of a legendary compposition by another genius. From the depths of our hearts, we extend our gratitude: first to Yunchan Lim (- May Allah always protect him from the evil eye 🧿--) and his family, then to the Korean Society and the State that nurture such talent, a timeless legend for the world stage, and finally to the Cliburn Competition for inspiring and motivating young talents to enrich human civilization. We eagerly await and hope that we will find the opportunity to witness Yunchan Lim's artistry Türkiye in our lifetime. 🎶

Music performance made in heaven !
Now at the age of 19, he’s already a towering giant. Bach, Beethoven, Liszt, Brahms, not to mention Rachmaninoff, he played were the greatest in my opininon and his Chopin Etudes at Carnegie which is eagerly anticipated will be a revelation given the incredible sound in progress peeked through what was sampled at Wigmore last October. Bravo Yunchan, bravo the whole music world for having him!!
Blessed to be alive to hear this in all of its glory. Amazing what humans are capable of.
It’s not human. :)
Legendary perfomance!
I agree
Liszt and Paganini in agreement. LOL
@@asg77777 your comment made me laugh 😆

I also agree guys.
cannot stop listening to this
Something special and rare occurred in that performance hall. The voice of God himself.
I love how Marin Alsop is holding on for dear life at times
Lol but true
Is this what it means to be alive? Because if so, then I’ll cherish every moment of it
Watching this video has become my routine
Somewhere Sergei Rachmaninoff is grinning ear to ear
I have replayed this 100 times
I can't wait to hear Yunchan's 2nd Rach piano concerto. 👏👏👏

매일 이 걸 듣지않음 입안에 가시가 돋는다ᆢ큰일이다 실황 시디판이 나올순없는가? 초절정기교곡처럼ᆢ 강약의 오묘한 터치감ᆢ 타의추종의 불허함~ 세상이 그대에게 더 많은 자유를 주고 심오함을 넓힐 시간을 많이가지길ᆢ❤
이게 심지어 대회라는게 믿겨지지않는다. 이기려는 떨림과 욕심없는 완벽한 연주~^^ 머리숙혀 존경
His 2nd movement always makes me in tears
