Hudson Ye Hyung Chung embarked on his violin journey at the age of six in his hometown of Jerusalem, Israel. At the age of 11, he made his debut with the Jerusalem Symphony Orchestra and received sponsorship from Israel’s fifth president, Mr. Itzhak Navon. With an illustrious career marked by major success in national and international music competitions across Israel, South Korea, and the United States, Mr. Chung is celebrated for his sophisticated, compelling interpretations and his soulful, resplendent tone.

In 2023, he was honored to perform at Carnegie Weill Recital Hall as the featured soloist for Boston University's 150th Anniversary Concert, receiving a standing ovation for his performance. A versatile musician, he actively engages in solo recitals, chamber performances, and orchestral collaborations, sharing the stage with world-renowned artists including Gil Shaham, the Sejong Soloists, Vadim Gluzman, Eugene Drucker, Sarah Chang, Ani Kavafian, and many more.

Mr. Chung has worked with esteemed conductors and composers such as Valery Gergiev, Alan Gilbert, Krzysztof Penderecki, John Adams, and Gabriela Lena Frank, performing in prestigious venues including Lincoln Center’s Alice Tully Hall, Carnegie Hall, Aviv Concert Hall, Jerusalem Theatre, Jordan Hall, and Symphony Hall.

He has studied at The Juilliard School, Yale School of Music, New England Conservatory, and Boston University under the tutelage of luminaries such as Miriam Fried, Hyo Kang, Paul Biss, and Peter Zazofsky. Currently pursuing his Doctor of Musical Arts degree, Mr. Chung continues his studies under the guidance of Jennifer Frautschi, Philip Setzer, and Haggai Shaham.

Beyond his performance career and academic pursuits, Mr. Chung has a genuine heart for serving communities in need—an ethic rooted in his humble upbringing as a pastor’s son. He is a co-founder of the Skopos Ensemble, which partners with Music for Food of Boston to raise funds for Women’s Lunch Place, a nonprofit providing meals and shelter for women in need in the Boston area. He also serves as the praise team leader at Life Church in Flushing.
