An Inspiring Story
Remarkable Pianist to Visit Some Georgia Rotary Clubs

Youngsuh Noh, a remarkable pianist who has triumphed over significant personal challenges, will be visiting Georgia - with a visit planned to the Peachtree City Rotary Club on September 26 and travel planned to clubs in Savannah, sister city to his home city in Germany. Despite having only about 5% of his sight due to Stargardt disease, Youngsuh has gained recognition across Asia and Europe for his exceptional musical talent and inspiring journey.

He will be traveling to Georgia with Luise Jäsche, a GRSP alumnus from 2018-19. Luise says, "During my time studying music at Georgia Southern University, I experienced the immense support and hospitality of the Rotary community. Now, as I pursue my PhD in music, it would be an honor to give back by introducing the members to Youngsuh. His story was so incredibly inspiring to me and I remember how the Rotary Clubs in Georgia brought in such interesting guest speakers when I was attending their meetings.  I just really want to help him spread the word about him as a musician, but also about his rare disease, which is mainly being researched in the States, and his life as a disabled musician."
