About

There are moments in music when time seems to pause, and with Arcangelo Corelli’s music, I have experienced that enchanted stillness – where each note is not just heard but felt deeply. His music, elegant and radiant, is the gentle whisper of a bygone era, yet it breathes timeless warmth and light.

“Corelli’s art is a delicate conversation between violin and continuo, a living breath of harmony and counterpoint that dances with noble grace. Each phrase unfolds like a tender story, where voices seek, answer, and embrace one another – like cherished friends sharing secrets across the ages. It was through my mentor,
Ryo Terakado, and his luminous recording of the Violin Sonatas, op.5, that I first stepped into this radiant world. Since then, Corelli’s melodies have been a constant companion – like a soft glow in the twilight, a source of inspiration and solace.

“Corelli’s influence extends far beyond my own story. His style shaped the musical language of generations – admired openly by François Couperin, absorbed deeply into the work of Jean-Marie Leclair, and echoed, even centuries later, by virtuosi such as Pablo Sarasate and Niccolò Paganini.

“His music is both spiritual and earthly – a beacon of simplicity and profound beauty.

“I am deeply grateful to Ryo Terakado for guiding me to this wellspring of grace, to
Kaori Uemura and François Guerrier for their artistry, and to our magical producer Guido Tichelman and the Byucksan Corporation for nurturing this project.”
– Eun-Shik Kim
