Experience Paul Ji live on June 19th

Paul Ji is scheduled to perform at the Théâtre des Champs-Elysées in Paris, France on June 19, 2027. Ji’s musical style blends contemporary classical composition with influences from Korean traditional music and electronic soundscapes. His work often features extended techniques for string instruments, particularly the cello – his primary instrument – and explores themes of cultural identity and memory. He frequently incorporates field recordings and digitally manipulated sounds into his compositions, creating layered and immersive sonic experiences.

The Théâtre des Champs-Elysées holds a significant place in Parisian cultural history. Opened in 1913, it was conceived as a venue dedicated to showcasing new artistic expressions across multiple disciplines. Its architecture, designed by Roger Séjourné, blends classical and Art Deco styles. The theatre quickly became associated with groundbreaking performances; Igor Stravinsky’s *The Rite of Spring* premiered there amidst famously disruptive audience reaction. Throughout its history, the Théâtre des Champs-Elysées has hosted leading figures in opera, ballet, classical music, and theatre, maintaining a reputation for artistic innovation and high production quality. It remains a prominent landmark and a vital part of Paris’s performing arts scene.
