The next performance in our Concert Series, which we have tagged Let There be Music, is coming in May! Timothy, an accomplished cellist, will be performing with his mother Jeanne, a graduate of Juilliard School of Music.

Timothy Paek began his cello studies at the age of 9 in the Juilliard Preparatory Division under the direction of Andre Emelianoff. Tim has performed in many concert halls including Lincoln Center's Alice Tully Hall, New York City Opera, and Carnegie Hall's Stern Auditorium and Weill Recital Hall. He was also the grand-prize winner of the Summit Symphony Competition and of the National Korean Hymnal Concourse Competition. He graduated from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln School of Music and is currently pursuing a Master of Music degree in cello performance at the Cleveland Institute of Music. Tim plays professionally in the Canton Symphony Orchestra and is a member of the Meadowlark Piano Trio. He has also played with the Lincoln Symphony Orchestra and the Trans-Siberian Orchestra and worked with members of the Chiara, Yin, Cavani, Concord, and Juilliard String quartets.

Jeanne Paek, a Juilliard graduate pianist and organist, is currently working for Changewater UMC and Round Valley UMC as their music director. Jeanne is happily married to Reverend Andrew Paek. She and Reverend Paek, her husband of 27 years, are proud parents of two wonderful children, Esther and Tim.
