Long bio (feature interview)click to expand

Ethan Kim is the founder of Orchestra Kingdom, the AI audition coach for orchestra students. As a violist, he watched conservatory peers spend $5,000–$20,000 a year on private lessons just to get the kind of specific, in-the-moment feedback their school orchestra rehearsal couldn't provide — and saw younger students give up on serious playing because that scale of investment wasn't available to them. Orchestra Kingdom is the product of that observation. The platform's daily AI Teacher (voice + camera + sheet music) costs about 68 cents a day and answers anything a student is stuck on. The Judge audition coach grades every dimension of a take in 60 seconds. The Oracle weekly plan adapts each player's practice to their measured weak spots. Orchestra Kingdom has shipped 70+ Marks in six weeks; every one is publicly timestamped on the roadmap.

Longform (~120 words)click to expand

Orchestra Kingdom is the AI audition coach orchestra students never had. Daily Teacher conversations replace the lessons most students can't afford between weekly meetings. The Judge scores every recorded take on intonation, rhythm, dynamics, and tone within 60 seconds. The Oracle weekly plan reads the student's last 30 days of practice and personalizes the next 7. Mentor and Court tiers extend the kingdom to private teachers and full school orchestras. The product is built and shipped by Ethan Kim — a violist — and ships at indie velocity, with every feature publicly timestamped on the roadmap. Free to try at orchestrakingdom.com/try-teacher; paid plans start at $249 per year.

I built the practice tool I wish I'd had at thirteen — and then shipped it ten times faster than the conservatory's IT department thought possible.
— Ethan Kim, Orchestra King
