Jenny Bae (born 1980, Korea) is a famous violinist. She lived in Seoul and New York where she also studies in Juillard School. Her musical stage debut was in the COEX Auditorium in southern Seoul with "Dancing Violin-Barrage," an ensemble of electric violins played by twelve musicians. She has also won several international prices. For example, she was elected “Artist of the world” by the Asian Entertainment Award Show and selected as “New Faces” in Hong Kong, Japan and Korea a few years ago.

When she was only 20, her musical ability was already great enough to allow her to perform with Luciano Pavarotti during a peace concert at the Jamsil Main Stadium in eastern Seoul in 2000. She also took part at the “Pavarotti and friends” in Modena. In a charity concert with Pavarotti she represented Korea as a solo artist. The previous year, 2004, she was invited by Zucchero to play at the Royal Albert Hall in London with other artists such as Eric Clapton, Brian May, Luciano Pavarotti, Mousse T. , Ronan Keating, Paul Young etc. In this event she played a cover song of The Korgis, “Everybody’s got to learn sometimes” with Zucchero on vocals. In the next year she played all round Italy, especially in Rome to the Piper Club and in 2006 she was invited to the 7th Summit for Noble Prices for Peace and to the “Concerto di Natale” in Rome on 11 December in the Auditorium Massimiliano Massimo.

In Berlin she played 2 titles with the Filmorchester Babelsberg by Verdi and Grey. But production is the main idea: to strike “the bridge”, the differences between Asia and Europe by mixing together Asian elements with the European classic one and the modern pop sound.
