Young pianists vie for glory in Chopin contest

For South Korean pianist Su Yeon Kim, the music of Frederic Chopin is a way of life and competing in the world’s most prestigious event bearing the French-Polish composer’s name is a dream come true. She says the first piece by the 19th-century composer and piano virtuoso – who was born in 1810 and died in 1849 – that she learned to play as a child was his Minute Waltz.
