Reviews

His pianist, (David Oei) displays same appealing qualities"[5] "A gorgeous, lush tone",[6] "Great flair and brilliance",[7] "Transcendent technical control",[8] "Gracefully lyrical...Infectious warmth throughout",[9]

The Sonata is a superior example of perceptive chamber music collaboration",[12] "Kim's rich, golden tone is a real treat...no doubt many great singers would envy Kim's lovingly phrased and songful performance...easy recommendation".[13] The Starr-Kim-Boeckheler Piano Trio (with pianist Susan Starr, cellist Ulrich Boeckheler) released the Mendelssohn Piano Trio in c minor, and the Tchaikovsky Piano Trio in a minor with the Mastersound/Allegro.
