Inmo Yang

Korean violinist Inmo Yang is the first prize winner of the 2022 Jean Sibelius Violin Competition. In March 2015, Inmo won the 54th International Violin Competition “Premio Paganini” in Genoa, Italy, marking the first time since 2006 that the Paganini Competition jury awarded First Prize. He also garnered the following special prizes: youngest finalist, best performance of the contemporary original piece, performance most appreciated by the audience, and a special recital in Genoa using Paganini’s own Guarneri Del Gesu violin. 

Inmo studied with Miriam Fried at the New England Conservatory of Music in Boston, where he was the only violinist in its highly selective Artist Diploma program. Inmo is currently based in Berlin, where he is pursuing a master’s degree under Antje Weithaas at Hochschule für Musik “Hanns Eisler”. Inmo plays on the c. 1718 “Bostonian” Stradivarius on loan from a private donor.
