Su-a Lee

Su-a Lee arrived in England from her native Korea when she was one. She and her two sisters all went to Chetham’s Music School in Manchester. On leaving school Su-a was awarded a scholarship to study with Harvey Shapiro at the Juillard School of Music in New York. On graduating, destiny led her quickly to the Scottish Chamber Orchestra, which she has used as her base to dive off in many musical directions – jazz, folk, contemporary, electronics, tango and…Mr McFall’s Chamber of course. As the new millennium approached she felt the need to take up a second instrument and chose the musical saw, at which she almost immediately became a virtuoso. Su-a has achieved near-celebrity status in Scotland both through her music-making and through her personal vivacity, beauty and social staying power.
