Mi-Young Park (born October 30, 1948, Seoul) is a Korean-American violinist. She soloed with the Seoul Philharmonic and the Korean Broadcasting Symphony Orchestra after winning First Prize in the Korean National Music Competition. For almost fifty years she concertized with her sister, Pong-Hi, in a violin-piano duo known as The Park Sisters. [1] [2]
At age fourteen, Park was accepted by Efrem Zimbalist, director of the Curtis Institute of Music in Philadelphia, [3] [4]
Park taught as part of the faculty of the New School of Music in Philadelphia and Dickinson College in Carlisle, Pennsylvania. [5]
At a relatively young age, Park limited the number of her performing engagements due to health issues. In 1986, she purchased a Giuseppe Guarneri del Gesu dated 1722 (Cozio 49179 [6] ) [7] that she played until her retirement in 2005.
Much of her career was dedicated to performing recitals with her sister, pianist Pong-Hi Park. [8] [9] While still in grade school, they began playing recitals together that continued for almost fifty years. They concertized as The Park Sisters, [10] performing a wide range of violin-piano repertoire [11] [12] first in South Korea and then in New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, and Maryland.
Park lives with her husband, conductor Marc Mostovoy, in New Jersey. [13]

Isaac Stern was an American violinist.
A concerto is, from the late Baroque era, mostly understood as an instrumental composition, written for one or more soloists accompanied by an orchestra or other ensemble. The typical three-movement structure, a slow movement preceded and followed by fast movements, became a standard from the early 18th century.
Friedrich "Fritz" Kreisler was an Austrian-born American violinist and composer. One of the most noted violin masters of his day, and regarded as one of the greatest violinists of all time, he was known for his sweet tone and expressive phrasing. Like many great violinists of his generation, he produced a characteristic sound which was immediately recognizable as his own. Although it derived in many respects from the Franco-Belgian school, his style is nonetheless reminiscent of the gemütlich (cozy) lifestyle of pre-war Vienna.

The Twelve Grand Concertos, Op. 6, HWV 319–330, by George Frideric Handel are concerti grossi for a concertino trio of two violins and cello and a ripieno four-part string orchestra with harpsichord continuo. First published by subscription in London by John Walsh in 1739, they became in a second edition two years later Handel's Opus 6. Taking the older concerto da chiesa and concerto da camera of Arcangelo Corelli as models, rather than the later three-movement Venetian concerto of Antonio Vivaldi favoured by Johann Sebastian Bach, they were written to be played during performances of Handel's oratorios and odes. Despite the conventional model, Handel incorporated in the movements the full range of his compositional styles, including trio sonatas, operatic arias, French overtures, Italian sinfonias, airs, fugues, themes and variations and a variety of dances. The concertos were largely composed of new material: they are amongst the finest examples in the genre of baroque concerto grosso.
The Musette, or rather chaconne, in this Concerto, was always in favour with the composer himself, as well as the public; for I well remember that HANDEL frequently introduced it between the parts of his Oratorios, both before and after publication. Indeed no instrumental composition that I have ever heard during the long favour of this, seemed to me more grateful and pleasing, particularly, in subject.
Ossy Renardy was an Austrian classical violinist, who made a major impression in Europe before migrating to the United States at age 17. There he made the first complete recording of any version of the 24 Paganini Caprices. He became an American citizen and served in the US Army in World War II, giving almost 500 concerts for the troops. He returned to the concert stage after the war, but only five years into his adult career he was killed in a car crash in New Mexico, at the age of 33. He left a number of recordings.
