Doori Yoo, pianist<\/span><\/p>\n

Currently serving on the faculty of Pensacola Christian College, Dr. Doori Yoo regularly <\/span>performs throughout the US and abroad as a soloist and chamber musician. She has appeared <\/span>in Weill Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall for solo and chamber performances. She has formed <\/span>piano duo with pianist Lawrence Quinnett and given performances of wide range of duet\/duo <\/span>repertoire, including Three Pieces for Two Pianos by Ligeti. Former member of New Music <\/span>Ensemble at FSU, Yoo has performed works by several award-winning living composers, such <\/span>as Kaija Saariaho and Sebastian Currier.\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n

Yoo has great interest in using music to reach the community. This interest has led her to <\/span>opportunities to give concerts such as Benefit Concert for World Transformation Information <\/span>Technology in South Korea, where the profits were used to provide computers and cellular <\/span>phones and education for technology to the people in underdeveloped countries.\u00a0 <\/span>As a devoted educator, Yoo teaches both piano and music theory in college. She regularly gives <\/span>masterclasses to students through teacher organizations and has worked with students of all <\/span>ages. Yoo has keen interest in teaching piano technique, specifically on using body effectively <\/span>for maximum result. This interest in part comes from her many years of extensive study with <\/span>Brazilian\/American pianist and pedagogue Daisy de luca Jaff\u00e9, who developed Relaxation <\/span>Technique after studying with Magda Tagliaferro, a protege of the legendary teacher Alfred <\/span>Cortot.<\/span><\/p>\n

Born in Seoul, Yoo started learning the piano at four. After moving to the US, she released her <\/span>first album of her arrangements and composition for piano when she was sixteen years old. Yoo <\/span>received her Bachelor of Arts and Master of Arts degrees from Pensacola Christian College <\/span>under the tutelage of Daisy de luca Jaff\u00e9, and her Doctor of Music degree from Florida State <\/span>University, where she studied with renowned pianist and pedagogue Read Gainsford. Yoo is <\/span>now based in Pensacola FL.<\/span><\/p>\n
