Where do I start with Hahn-Bin? Detractors might brush off the theatrical make-up and fashion sense as the Lady Gaga of classical music, but close your eyes and listen to him play violin and the effect is arresting.
Background: Born in Seoul, moved to the US at 12, trained at Juilliard under the tutelage of Itzhak Perlman, and plays a Giuseppe Guarneri del Gesu violin.
