Sung-Suk Kang enjoys an international career that takes her across Europe, to the Far East and to both North and South America. Her many recordings and broadcasts for leading international radio and tv networks include the music of Mozart, Beethoven, Bach, Chopin, Brahms, Debussy and Berg.
Born in Seoul, South Korea, Sung-Suk Kang received her first piano lesson at age 5 and went on to study at the prestigious Seoul Institute of the Arts. Further training in Singapore was followed by intensive studies at the Royal Northern College of Music in the UK (with Derrick Wyndham) and the Hochschule für Musik in Vienna (with the legendary Paul Badura-Skoda). As a student, Kang participated in master classes given by the likes of Vlado Perlemuter, Joseph Kalichstein and Pascal Rogé.
In 1990, Kang received the accolade of winning a coveted place at the world-renowned Banff Centre for the Arts in Alberta, Canada, among just a handful of other musicians. Here she performed with a string of leading international performers, such as Luis Claret and Zoltan Szekely.

Kang has gone on to develop a distinguished and varied career in concertos, recitals and chamber music. Engagements have taken her as far afield as the UK and Singapore, Canada and Austria, the Czech Republic, Italy and Peru. A particular honour was the invitation to perform in duet repertoire with Paul Badura-Skoda at a major Mozart event in the Carinthischer Sommer festival in Austria.

Kang boasts a particularly rich concerto discography. Included among her many recordings are the Mozart K466 and K491 concerti (with the Prague Mozart Orchestra); the Bach D Minor keyboard concerto (Rousse Chamber Orchestra); the Mendelssohn D Minor piano concerto (Rousse Philharmonic Orchestra); plus the Schumann piano concerto and Anton Rubinstein's piano concerto no 4 (both with the Plovdiv Philharmonic Orchestra).
A string of recital discs feature such works as the Brahms Intermezii Op 117 & 118, Beethoven's Opus 10 No 3 Sonata, the Berg Sonata and numerous works by Chopin.

Chamber music recordings include major Beethoven projects with two regular concert partners: the complete sonatas for 'cello (with Wolfgang Panhofer) and the complete violin sonatas (with Mario Hossen).
Kang's concert partnership with Leon Bosch, one of the world's leading double bass players, has been especially fruitful, resulting in a series of recordings - CDs devoted to both British and Russian music, with another disc highlighting the music of the legendary double bassist, Domenico Dragonetti.

Sung-Suk Kang is a professor at the Vienna Conservatoire.
