IMK Trio Brings the Daejeon Cosmopolitan Music Festival to KAIST

At the KAIST Art Museum, the 26th Daejeon Cosmopolitan Music Festival reached beyond the concert hall — the KAIST × DCMF collaboration expanding the resonance of classical music with masterworks by Mendelssohn and Dvořák.

The IMK Trio — violinist Liang Wang, cellist Meehae Ryo and pianist Chulhee Yoon — paired Mendelssohn’s Piano Trio No. 1 in D minor with Dvořák’s “Dumky” Trio, while Yoon’s commentary drew the audience deeper into the music. Art and academia, the local and the international, met in one evening of chamber music.

“The combination of distinguished performances and a highly receptive audience created a genuine sense of communication between the stage and the hall.”
