The Orchestral Ensemble Seoul (OES) is a South Korean chamber orchestra based in Seoul. Established in 2014, it is one of the finest chamber orchestras in South Korea. The orchestra is the Governmental Arts Organization designated by the Seoul City since 2020. Its Artistic Director and Chief Conductor is Daniel Gyu-seo Lee.

Overview

Established in January 2014, the Orchestral Ensemble Seoul has achieved unprecedented growth with extraordinary musicianship, and been considered one of the most important music groups in Korea. In May 2014, the orchestra held its inaugural concert at the Sejong Centre, conducted by Daniel Gyu-seo Lee. In December of the same year, the orchestra started subscription concerts at the Seoul Arts Center with internationally acclaimed artists including Bomsori Kim, Yeol Eum Son, Attila Jun, Sunhae Im, Hieyon Choi, and Kyung Sun Lee, to name a few.^[1]

In 2020, the Seoul City designated the orchestra as the Governmental Arts Organization. The orchestra is focusing on retaining symphonic repertoires in period between Mozart and Brahms. Recently the orchestra accomplished the 'Complete Beethoven Symphonies and Piano Concertos' at the Seoul Arts Center. During this cycle, the Eroica Symphony was released as a live album in association with NCM Klassik.^[2]^[3] Currently the orchestra is on the 'Complete Schumann Symphonies and Concertos.'

Comments

Renowned Finnish music critic Harri Kuusisaari commented on its live recording album as follows:

"...it is surprising to hear such a convincing Beethoven Symphony from this young Korean project orchestra. Lee has everything in his grip and the orchestra follows him enthusiastically."

Grammy Award winning classical producer Michael Fine characterised the sound of the OES^[4]:

"... stylish, alert, warm, and transparent with so much of the counterpoint beautifully revealed in the most natural way. ..."

After the Korean tour with Lee and the OES, Pianist Yeol Eum Son noted:

"...Korea's Neville Marriner and the Academy of St Martin in the Fields."
