Su-a Lee

Korean born cellist Su-a Lee is one of the highlights of the Scottish music scene. Celebrated
wherever she goes, she stands out for her versatility, popularity, and appetite for musical
adventure.Born in Seoul, Su-a trained at Chethams School of Music, completing her studies at the Juilliard School in New York. On graduating with her Bachelor’s degree, Su-a moved to Scotland, to join
the Scottish Chamber Orchestra, where she remains as Assistant Principal Cello.

Though Su-a spends most of her time playing classical music, she is also very much in demand
across a wide musical spectrum, working in all art forms. The range of her non classical work has encompassed recording Musical Saw for Eric Clapton, performing at Celtic Connections with Jack Bruce of Cream and the folk band Lau, to improvisatory work with the Belgian Theatre group Reckless Sleepers, regular appearances with fiddler Duncan Chisholm, and a tour of India with the Sarod maestro, Amjad Ali Khan.
