Sarah Chang (Korean: 장영주, also 張永主) (Chinese: 張永宙) (born Young Joo Chang; December 10, 1980) is a Korean American violin virtuoso. Her debut came in 1989 with the New York Philharmonic and the Philadelphia Orchestra. During the 1990s and 2000s, Chang had major roles in performing at famous orchestras like New York Philharmonic and NHK Symphony Orchestra.

For the 2004 Olympics, she served running with the Olympic Torch in New York.[2] In 2005, Yale University dedicated a chair in Sprague Hall in Chang's name.[2]

Early life and education

Chang was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Her father, Min-Soo Chang, is a violinist and music teacher. Her mother, Myoung Jun, is a composer.[3] Chang's parents moved to the United States from South Korea in 1979 for her father's advanced music degree at Temple University. Her mother took composition classes at the University of Pennsylvania. Chang has said that although she "never actually lived in Korea... I do still feel very strongly it's where my roots are."[4] She has a brother, who is seven years younger, Michael. In a 1998 interview to PBS, Chang explained that he is an avid tennis player and is thus often mistaken for being Michael Chang, an athlete with the same given name who the family have no relations to.[5] Her father has settled back to Korea, while her brother graduated from Princeton University in 2010.[6][7]

Her mother trained her to play one-finger melodies on the piano at age 3. For her fourth birthday, she was given a 1/16-sized violin, and eventually auditioned for the Juilliard School two years later by performing the Bruch Violin Concerto No. 1 in G minor.[8] Chang was admitted into the studio of the late Dorothy DeLay,[9] the same alma mater of her father. She was also taught by Hyo Kang, a former student and assistant of DeLay. Chang attended elementary school in the Philadelphia area while studying music on Saturdays at Juilliard. Due to her musical accomplishments, Chang is among a very small number of professional figures recognized as a child prodigy.[10][11] At the age of 8, she auditioned alongside Zubin Mehta and Riccardo Muti, who worked with the New York Philharmonic and the Philadelphia Orchestra. Both granted her immediate engagements.[12]

She learned to speak Korean and German.

Following her 1999 high school graduation in New Jersey, she returned to Juilliard for university and studied with DeLay.[13]

Career

Early work

In 1991, when Chang was 10 years old, she recorded her first album, Debut;[14] it was released by EMI Classics on August 18, 1992 and quickly reached the Billboard chart of classical best-sellers.[15] Chang quickly rose to fame and became known on an international scale, performing up to 150 concerts a year. At the age of 17, she asked for a three-month break; this opportunity did not come until she turned 20 years old. In 2006, Newsweek ranked her as one of the Top Eight Achieving Females in the United States. In the interview accompanying the feature, she commented: "I think having a career at such an early age kept me focused. We schedule at least two to three years in advance in the classical industry. I felt so grounded and so grateful to already know what it was that I wanted to do with my life."[16]

Distinction

Chang plays the 1717 Guarneri del Gesu violin,[17] and uses a variety of bows: Pajeot for Mozart and Bach; Sartory for "the big-whammy concertos, the Tchaikovsky and Sibelius"; and two Dominique Peccattes for other music.[17]

She has collaborated with most major orchestras, including the New York Philharmonic, the Philadelphia Orchestra, the Chicago Symphony, the Boston Symphony, the Cleveland Orchestra, the Montréal Symphony Orchestra, the Berlin Philharmonic, the Vienna Philharmonic, orchestras in London, England, and the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra of Amsterdam, Holland. Additionally, she has performed with the Los Angeles Philharmonic, the NHK Symphony Orchestra of Tokyo, the Hong Kong Philharmonic Orchestra, the Bayerische Rundfunk Orchestra, the Washington National Symphony Orchestra, the Oslo Philharmonic, the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra, the Melbourne Symphony, Orchestre de la Suisse Romande, Orchestre Philharmonique de Luxembourg, the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra, the Orchestre National de France, the Honolulu Symphony, and the Netherlands Radio Philharmonic Orchestra amongst others.

In 2002, she performed in Pyongyang, North Korea. Chang commented: "The concert was full of government officials. Every single last seat. It was invitation only, but it was an unbelievable experience. Frightening and exhilarating at the same time. And I just thought about how lucky I am. I am so fortunate to be a musician, and at that moment, I genuinely felt that music is the one and only universal language."[18]

Along with Pete Sampras and Wynton Marsalis, she is a featured artist in watchmaker Movado's global advertising campaign "The Art of Time". For the 2004 Olympics, she was given the honor of running with the Olympic Torch in New York.[2] In 2005, Yale University dedicated a chair in Sprague Hall in Chang's name.[2] Following this, Chang toured for an entire year with members of the Berlin Philharmonic and the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra with a Sextet programme in summer festivals leading to a concert at the Berlin Philharmonie.
