Joonhyeok

I completed my undergraduate studies in conducting at Seoul National University in Korea, where I studied under Professor Emeritus Hun-Joung Lim. He is highly regarded as the only conductor in Korea who has performed the complete symphonies of Mahler and Bruckner, as well as many challenging and lesser-known repertoires. Under his guidance, I was able to significantly expand my repertoire and deepen both my musical knowledge and artistic vision.

Currently, I am pursuing my master’s degree in conducting under the Professor Marc Piollet at the University of Music and Performing Arts Graz, Austria.

My lessons are mainly offered online and cover a wide range of topics: from basic conducting techniques to musical interpretation, conducting methods, and the professional attitude required of a conductor. For students preparing for entrance examinations, I provide focused and specialized training tailored to their needs.
