Music
Jeonghwan is esteemed both as an instrumentalist and as a composer, but is best known for his extensive research into the life and works of Fartein Valen, Norwegian composer of atonal polyphonic music. Having travelled internationally on several occasions to give lectures on Valen's oeuvre, he is in high demand amongst prominent music institutions. Before the 2020 COVID-19 Pandemic, he had been working with the Bergen Filharmoniske Orkester to produce a new album of selected Valen orchestral works, featuring the Second Symphony (Op. 40); unfortunately, this endeavor has been postponed, with an intention to resume recording at some point in 2021.
