2025 Lunar New Year Celebration with Xian Zhang

New Jersey Performing Arts Center

Dr. Kwon’s recital will feature selections from her project, America/Beautiful, which commissioned more than 70 composers to write a variation or short piece on America the Beautiful. 

Piano Recital and Masterclass with Min Kwon

Cleveland Institute of Music

America/Beautiful is a project by pianist and arts advocate Min Kwon, in which she has commissioned a diverse group of more than 70 of today’s leading American composers to each compose a variation on “America the Beautiful.”

Kwon's hope is to paint a sonic picture of her adopted country in all of its sprawling complexity, and ultimately try to find the beauty at the core of the American experiment and its credo of e pluribus unum (out of many, one).
