This Friday, We Will Proudly Welcome Nicole Jeong

We are very excited to announce that on Friday, 21st April we will welcome an accomplished Juilliard violinist, Nicole Jeong, to our school.  This is one of the many benefits of The Juilliard-Nord Anglia Performing Arts Programme where our students and teachers are provided with a unique opportunity to engage with Juilliard alumni and Juilliard-affiliated artists.

Nicole Jeong was born in Korea, achieved her bachelor’s degree at Ewha Women’s University, completed her doctorate at SUNY Stony Brook under the tutelage of Philip Setze and Soovin Kim and has earned her master’s degree from The Juilliard School.  She has a passion for chamber music, is an Ackerman chamber music prize winner and has collaborated with numerous composers and performed with a variety of ensembles in the US, Korea and Asia. Ms Jeong resided in New York for 14 years, before recently relocating to Jakarta.

Ms Jeong will be able to use her extensive experience to inspire our students with master classes at both Primary and Secondary campuses. Parents will also have the opportunity to hear her perform, as she has graciously agreed to do a late afternoon performance in the An Phu Secondary Campus Auditorium for interested students and parents. 

The concert will feature a wide mix of music including a performance of Vivaldi Violin Concerto in Am accompanied by the BIS HCMC chamber orchestra, works by Williams, Bach and others.

We look forward to welcoming Ms. Jeong to BIS HCMC.
