Her future would seem to be without limit.”
Violinist Angelia Cho, originally from Columbia, South Carolina began to study violin at the age of three. A year later she made her public recital debut at South Carolina Women’s College, and performed on NBC-TVs critically acclaimed PM Magazine. Ms. Cho made her debut with the Philadelphia Orchestra at age 11 with the Wieniawski Concerto at the Mann Music Center and performed with them again in the Academy of Music three years later.

In that same year, Ms. Cho performed ‘Song and Dance’ for violin and wind ensemble by Gunther Schuller as part of a Festival honoring the legendary composer. Of the performance, New Music Connoisseur wrote, “ Angelia Cho, whose violin playing traversed both expressive and rambunctious passage work with seemingly effortless expertise.” Ms. Cho has explored and dedicated her time to performing contemporary works that led her to work closely with today’s most renowned composers such as Gyorgy Kurtag, Gunther Schuller, Steve Reich, and Michael Gandolfi.
Angelia’s festival appearances have included Kneisel Hall, Sarasota, Verbier, Keshet Eilon Violin Mastercourses in Israel, International Musicians Seminar at Prussia Cove, England and Yellow Barn Music Festival.
