Jordan Dodson is “one of the top young guitarists of his generation” (Performance Today). He was the first graduate of the Curtis Institute of Music’s then-new guitar program, and was selected to be Artist in Residence by American Public Media. A passionate advocate of new music, he has premiered hundreds of works. A child of music-educator parents, violinist Siwoo Kim began playing violin at an early age and is a founder of Columbus’ Vivo Music Festival. Both artists began professional life in Columbus and are now based in New York. Their homecoming is not to be missed!.
