Beyond the Keys: Music and Stories of Inspiration

Beyond the Keys: Music and Stories of Inspiration isn’t just a book you read—it’s an emotional experience you see, feel, and hear! Each of the 52 chapters is a heartfelt reflection paired with a solo piano performance by Jeeyoon Kim (via QR code) and an original work of art by a contemporary artist.

“Consummate musicianship, engaging and innovative concert experience...”

— New York Classical Review

“I didn’t expect a book to slow me down in the best way. I found myself savoring each essay, then listening to the music in complete stillness. What a thoughtful and moving creation.”

—Noah Park, father and poet

Just as a piano has 52 white keys, Beyond the Keys offers 52 uplifting stories that take readers behind the scenes of a classical pianist’s life. Jeeyoon shares her journey as a South Korean immigrant, entrepreneur, and artist in her 40s—exploring themes of resilience, growth, and the power of positivity. With warmth and vulnerability, she offers encouragement, insight into an artist’s world, and the healing power of the arts.. JeeyoonKim.com
