Sung-Suk Kang

Sung-Suk Kang is a South Korean double bassist known for his impressive technical skills and commitment to expanding the double bass repertoire. He's recorded a wide range of music, from well-known composers like Mozart and Chopin to lesser-known gems from Bottesini and Valls, often showcasing the double bass as a solo instrument. He's also explored the double bass traditions of different countries, as heard in his albums "The Russian Double Bass" and "The British Double Bass."

Kang's dedication to his instrument is evident in his "Virtuoso Double Bass" series, highlighting the instrument's versatility and power. He's also collaborated with other musicians on projects like "The Music Of... Rankl, Sprongl & Hindemith" and frequently performs chamber music. While he's clearly a champion of the double bass, his recordings of piano works by Schumann and Chopin demonstrate his musical breadth and appreciation for other genres.
