About Juri Seo
Juri Seo is a Korean-American composer and pianist. She merges many of the fascinating aspects of music from the past century—in particular its expanded timbral palette and unorthodox approach to structure—with a deep love of functional tonality, counterpoint, and classical form. With its fast-changing tempi and dynamics, her music explores the serious and the humorous, the lyrical and the violent, the tranquil and the obsessive. She hopes to create music that loves, that makes a positive change in the world—however small—through the people who are willing to listen.

Her composition honors include a Guggenheim Fellowship and a Koussevitzky Commission from the Library of Congress. She has received commissions from Fromm Foundation, Barlow Endowment, the Goethe Institut, and Tanglewood. She holds a doctorate in music from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and is currently Associate Professor of Music at Princeton University.
