Jennifer Koh is a classical violinist known for her intense and commanding performances, delivered with a level of artistry and technical finesse that has garnered her a loyal global following. Having made her debut with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra at the tender age of 11, Koh has since established herself as a force in the world of classical music. Her repertoire is extensive and diverse, ranging from beloved classics to modern and contemporary works, reflecting her commitment to exploring a wide range of musical narratives and traditions.

Koh’s discography tells the tale of an artist unafraid to interweave the past with the present. The "Bach & Beyond" series are a testament to her ability to reinterpret and enliven the canon of Johann Sebastian Bach's works for solo violin, serving as both a homage and a personal exploration of the baroque master’s influence on the music that followed. Meanwhile, projects like "Limitless" demonstrate her advocacy for living composers, with the album featuring collaborations with contemporaries to push the boundaries of the traditional concert violinist format. Her collaboration with Finnish composer Kaija Saariaho in "Saariaho x Koh" showcases her skill at interpreting the language of contemporary music, while her discerning approach to more canonical works is evident in "Tchaikovsky: Complete Works for Violin & Orchestra." With each release, Jennifer Koh continues to assert her place in the pantheon of notable 21st-century violinists, adept at both championing new music and revitalizing the classics.
