Korean Concert Society's most prestigious program, the Kennedy Center Debut Recital series, has presented over two dozen outstanding artists since 1980, many of whom have gone on to play with major orchestras, make acclaimed recordings, or become in demand soloists. These artists are chosen in an annual jury process from a pool of global applicants. Typically, the program focuses on violinists, cellists, and pianists in annual rotation, although some other instruments have been chosen.
