[Asia Economy Reporter Byunghee Park] The National Chorus will hold a commemorative performance titled 'National Chorus Best Collection' at Myeongdong Arts Theater on the 15th and 16th to celebrate its 70th anniversary.

The program will include "Missing Geumgangsan," composed by Choi Youngseop and performed during the National Chorus's original concert, the humorous and flavorful Korean song "Myeongtae," the beloved musical insert song "A Whole New World" from the musical Aladdin, "Looking Forward to That Day" from the musical Hero, and well-known opera choruses such as Puccini's and Verdi's "Nessun Dorma" and "Brindisi" (Drinking Song), which are also familiar from commercials.


Additionally, audiences can experience classical masterpieces ranging from Baroque to Classical, Romantic, and Modern periods, including Brahms's "Academic Festival Overture," Mozart's "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star," Rossini's "William Tell Overture," and Handel's "Rinaldo."



Due to the ongoing COVID-19 situation, the National Chorus will strictly implement preventive measures such as spaced seating, mask-wearing, provision of hand sanitizers, and non-contact temperature checks.
