Jaewon Wee, winner of Dallas International Violin Competition, performs with the Dallas Chamber Symphony
Jaewon Wee won First Prize and the Audience Choice Prize at the Dallas International Violin Competition 2023 last summer.
Jaewon Wee is more than eager to return to Moody Performance Hall to perform with the Dallas Chamber Symphony; she's honored.
“I think the hall is really amazing,” Wee said.
The last time Wee was at the Dallas Arts District performance hall, she won First Prize and the Audience Choice Prize at the Dallas International Violin Competition 2023, a competition organized by the Dallas Chamber Symphony. As the first prize winner, Wee received a concert engagement with the Dallas Chamber Symphony, performing Mozart’s Violin Concerto No. 4 in D Major on February 6.
