Hyeonseon Baek - Longing (2024) [Official Digital Download 24/96]

Within the depths of our souls, we all experience various forms of desire-love, solitude, compassion. These yearnings, these colors of life, are what I sing about in my album, 'Longing.'

One of my tracks, my first single, 'West 4th Street,’ It tells the image of the intense jazz scene in New York City that inspired me. The title is the name of a street where the most jazzy neighborhoods are in the world, and there are two versions in my album, which are in Korean and English, to keep my Korean heritage in jazz.

The title track, "Longing," was written during a pandemic. In an unexpected situation, I suffered from self-doubt and decided to sing to overcome this feeling and move on with hope. Many of you can relate to that. Also, I sing some iconic jazz repertoires from influential heroes as a breezy tribute to them, including Duke Ellington, Horace Silver, Charles Mingus, and more.

As an artist, I am deeply grateful for your support. I strive to create music that transcends cultural and generational boundaries, blending traditional Jazz with a modern approach for our diverse and vibrant audience.
