Get Hands On!

I am so excited for part 2 of the hands on prep and insert veneer workshop that Jason J Kim Dental Aesthetics is sponsoring for the Aesthetic Advantage at NYU this Friday May 9th. The first session was back in April and this is the final course! Do not miss this opportunity to literally look over my shoulder and the shoulders of my dentist colleagues from the Rosenthal Apa Group as well as many other respected leaders in the field of oral design!

Check out the brochure below

This is a really unique opportunity for anyone in the field of dental restorations! Take a look at all the talent who will be attending:

The day begins bright and early with registration at 730am Friday at 345 East 24th Street! I hope to see you there!

A Young Talent: Yoo Jin Hong

I was so taken aback by the lovely and talented Yoo Jin Hong as our guest artist at last week's concert at Carnegie Hall, I just had to write a post about her. Hong joined Joo Young Oh on stage and also presented solo pieces at the concert that Jason J Kim Oral Design Center sponsored recently, and we were blown away by her performances. 

Yoo Jin Hong

Hong's talent is even more impressive because she is still so young at 17! 

In 2010 when she was only 13 years old, she won 1st place in David Oistrakh Competition and showed her talent at an early age.

Take a look at one of her performances online back during the same year

Yoo Jin graduated from the Yewon Art Middle School and the Korean National Institute for the Gifted in Art in the class of Bon‐ju Koo. She was a girl who enjoyed listening to David Oistrakh and Heifetz CDs as a little girl.

She also came in 2nd place at Louis Spohr Competition in Germany and began to earn her recognition internationally when she won her Grand Prix prize in 2012 at Balys Davarionas competition. Thereafter, she was invited to perform at various countries including China, Germany, Italy, Malaysia, Korea and more.

She was especially loved when she had her Tchaikovsky Conservatory recital in Moscow. She is currently the youngest student to be accepted into Korea’s prestigious School of Music at Seoul National University at the age of 16 and is studying under Professor Joo Young Baek.

She delighted everyone at Carnegie Hall and I just want to thank her again! If you have a chance to listen to her in person, you absolutely must! If you are interested in inviting her to perform by you, contact the European Union of Music Competitions for Youth (EMCY) Here.

Encore!

We had an incredible time during Joo Young Oh's violin performances at Carnegie Hall this past Saturday.

It was a packed house...or should I say Hall? What an incredible talent. Much thanks to Oh not only for his illustrious work on pieces Saint-Saëns, Sarasate, Piazzolla, and Bernstein but also for his many encores, including pieces he composed himself! 

Just look at that smile!! A very heartfelt thanks also for the beautiful plaque he presented to Jason Kim afterwards for all his work in supporting Korean artists. Beautiful night for all!

NYU Dental Extravaganza Video

A captivated audience at the NYU Dental Extravaganza Symposium

The NYU Dental Extravaganza Symposium was absolutely incredible this year. So many talented people making headway in the field, all there to teach others and further the level of skill in oral design work.

For those of you who couldn't be there, you're in luck! My presentations were recorded! Being there in the midst of this great dialogue with various vendors, dentists, and ceramists is so important and if you can make it out next year, I highly reccomend it. If you were there, let others know what you enjoyed about it (or, of course, let me know on my facebook page HERE).

In the meantime though enjoy my presentations!
