A native South Korean, Hyungjin Choi is a New York-based jazz pianist and vocalist whose distinctive voice and sound based on a classical background have attracted attention in the New York jazz scene. After training as a classical pianist from her early age, Choi graduated from the prestigious Seoul Institute of the Arts in 2006 and moved to New York in 2008 to attend the New School for Jazz and Contemporary Music where she earned a BFA degree in performing arts in 2010 with a jazz scholarship and the Noah Osnos scholarship. There, Choi received the finest jazz education from such jazz masters as Sam Yahel, Reggie Workman, Charles Tolliver, Jimmy Owens, Charlie Persip and Kevin Hays, and also became involved in many projects including that of the great Billy Harper. She has recorded and performed actively in many venues across the United States both as a sideman and a band leader. Currently she is a music directer at Onnuri In2 Church in Manhattan and a faculty of the Music School of Westchester and Riverdale Music Studio. Choi's debut album “Tales of a dreamer” will be released in early 2014.
