Pianist Cho Seong-jin has topped a music chart, Monday, after his win at the 17th International Fryderyk Chopin Piano Competition in Warsaw last week.
According to Universal Music, an album of Cho’s performance in the competition _ due to be released on Nov. 6 _ is number one on the online Kyobo Bookstore's overall best album chart.
The chart’s ranking is based on album sales. Reservations for the album opened last week.
It contains the pieces Cho played during the competition, including Preludes Op. 28, Nocturne in C Minor Op. 48/1, Piano Sonata No.2 in B Flat Minor Op. 35 and Scherzo No.2 in B Flat Minor Op. 31.
