Younghi Pagh-Paanaus modern

Younghi Pagh-Paan (* 30 November 1945 in Cheongju, South Korea) is a South Korean-German composer.

Life

From 1965 to 1972, she studied composition and musicology at Seoul State University. She came to Germany in 1974 and studied composition with Klaus Huber (her partner), analysis with Brian Ferneyhough, music theory with Peter Förtig and piano with Edith Picht-Axenfeld at the Freiburg University of Music until 1979.

Pagh-Paan adopted her stage name in the 1970s by adding Paan to her surname Pagh, which is very common in Korea.

In her compositions, she attempts to combine Korean folklore and avant-garde music.

The performance of her orchestral work Sori at the Donaueschingen Music Festival in 1980 brought her international fame. From 1994, she taught as a professor of composition at the University of the Arts Bremen, where she founded the Atelier Neue Musik, which she directed until her retirement in 2011. On her retirement, she was awarded the Bremen Medal for Art and Science.
