"Cheongukmin-eul Eungwonhamnida" Korean Symphony Online Chamber Music Concert

From the 20th, every Friday at 7 PM

[Asia Economy Reporter Byunghee Park] The Korean Symphony Orchestra will live stream "Concert in My Hand" on YouTube every Friday afternoon once a week.

Due to the difficulties in holding performances caused by the spread of the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19), the purpose is to send comfort and encouragement to all citizens exhausted by COVID-19 through online performances.

The Korean Symphony Orchestra announced that starting from the 20th, it will participate in the "Social Distancing - Pause for a Moment" campaign to prevent the spread of COVID-19 through approximately 40-minute online performances every Friday at 7 p.m.

The performances will be composed of chamber music groups of five or fewer members. The Korean Symphony Orchestra stated that members who wish to deliver messages of support through music will voluntarily participate in the performances.

Harpist Yoon Hye-sun and cellist Hong Seo-hyun will perform the first concert on the 20th. They will play Beethoven's "Ich Liebe Dich (I Love You)", Massenet's "Tha?s Meditation", and the first movement of Vivaldi's Four Seasons - Winter.

Then, on the 27th, the second concert will feature violinists Park Jin-hee, Lee Eun-jung, Cha Min-jung, Jo Ji-won, and double bassist Son Chi-ho.

Music critic Song Hyun-min will serve as the host to help not only fans who usually love classical music but also many citizens who have not been exposed to classical music understand it better. Jeong Chi-yong, the artistic director of the Korean Symphony Orchestra, will also participate as a panelist.
