她在八十年代相当活跃。她成名在英国所以主要在欧洲。她的音色很有特色。这里的一个介绍可知她的音乐地位是很高的:

She fell in love with the sound of violin when she played her first note on the instrument at age six. The violin produced a sound so different from that of piano, which she began to play at age four. She showed both an unusual talent and enthusiasm in learning to play her new instrument. At age nine, the little violinist copped the top prize at a national competition in Korea and at age 13 left for the U.S, to continue to study it at Juilliard. What followed is one of the best known success stories for women in Korea.

At 19, she shared the top prize in the prestigious Leventritt competition with Pinchas Zuckerman. She made her successful debut with the New York philharmonic Orchestra the next year (in 1968), and her European debut with the London Symphony Orchestra in London came two years later. The following years saw the diminutive young violinist from Korea acclaimed on numerous stages around the world, captivating music lovers with her brilliant performances.

In 1982, Chung Kyung-wha was named by the Sunday Times Magazine as "the greatest instrument player who has been most active during the previous two decades." A New York Times review of her recital at the Carnegie Hall in 1980 pointed to the ingenious quality of her music: "A consistent level of excellence in technique and interpretation may be expected as a matter of course from Chung Kyung-wha. Her recital made sure that the emotional temperature remained on the cool side throughout the evening. Actually, this was not really surprising either, for Miss Chung generally projects a musical personality that suggests dignified objectivity, for all her intensity and fire-and-ice virtuosity."

Chung was born in Seoul in 1948 as one of the seven children of a businessman. Her parents were particularly enthusiastic about musical education of their children and moved to New York where the world's best institutions and teachers were available. The results have been truly remarkable: among all of her musician brothers and sisters, Kyung-wha certainly has had the most notable international career. But her elder sister Myung-wha is also an accomplished cellist. Earlier this year, her younger brother, pianist-cum-conductor Myung-whun, made a successful debut as art director and conductor of the Bastille Opera in Paris. The three have been known as the Chung Trio, performing together between their heavily-sceduled individual activities.

"When I left Seoul in 1960, Korea was in a political confusion in the wake of the students' April uprising," Chung once recalled. "I was then filled with an ambition to become a successful violinist and make my country known to the world. But at Julliard, I was so shocked to see Itzhak Perlman, who was then also a student of my teacher. Prof. Ivan Galamian, playing at least 20 concertos at a time. I couldn't sleep a bit that night. Then I practiced and practiced to overcome my frustration. At that time I practiced for 14 hours a day, and my daily routine consisted only of practicing and attending classes. Now I feel it was an incredible challenge and passion, and such a life pattern continued until the Leventritt competition."

Prof. Galamian, who was famous for his stern teaching method, once told his Korean student to come for a lesson on Sunday morning at 7 o'clock. But she even amazed her notorious teacher by saying that she had been practicing until six in the morning. "Both of us were like that," she admits. She married a British businessman in 1984 and lives in London with her husband and two sons. During a press conference she gave while visiting Seoul in 1985 for her first concert tour to her homeland after marriage, she said: "The problem of marriage was on my mind for a long time. I know it is more difficult for a woman to continue her musical career than man because she has to think about matters like love, marriage and homemaking. But once you have achieved a certain knack, they cannot be big problems." She said that she did not feel that having a family and a baby posed an obstacle to her musical career. Added she: "I found that it's so rewarding to have a baby and now I feel more secure."

It is widely known that her mother, Yi Won-suk, has been especially dedicated to training her as a musician. Kyung-wha once said that she believed she would not have been able to build her career without the all-out support she had had from her mother. She says: "I thank my mother for encouraging me to continue my musical study even while my family was not in a good shape financially."

拉得非常棒!好像她在国际上露面不多似的,在美国的知名程度不如美多丽和萨拉张。其实有许多小提琴家,需要包装和宣传。演奏水平和知名度有时并不成正比。
