      • Mi-Young Park (born October 30, 1948, Seoul) is a Korean-American violinist. At age five, she began
      studying violin. She soloed with the Seoul Philharmonic and the Korean Broadcasting Symphony Orchestra after winning First Prize in the Korean National Music Competition. For almost fifty years she concertized with her sister, Pong-Hi, in a violin-piano duo known as The Park Sisters.


      Early life and education


      In 1955, she performed at the presidential palace for President Syngman Rhee and First Lady Franziska Donner in celebration of the president's 80th birthday. At age fourteen, Park was accepted by Efrem Zimbalist, director of the Curtis Institute of Music in Philadelphia,


      Career


      Park taught as part of the faculty of the New School of Music in Philadelphia and Dickinson College in Carlisle, Pennsylvania.
      While attending Curtis and following her graduation, she played with Concerto Soloists Chamber Orchestra of Philadelphia and was frequently featured in 18th- and 19th-century violin concertos on the Orchestra's main concert series as well as on tour in the United States and abroad. A number of her performances were recorded live and archived.
      At a relatively young age, Park limited the number of her performing engagements due to health issues. In 1986, she purchased a Giuseppe Guarneri del Gesu dated 1722 (Cozio 49179) that she played until her retirement in 2005.

They concertized as The Park Sisters, performing a wide range of violin-piano repertoire first in South Korea and then in New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, and Maryland.
