[Asia Economy Reporter Park Byung-hee] Social venue Raum will hold the May performance of 'Salon de Arte,' titled 'Van Gogh Meets Bernstein,' at 11 a.m. on the 26th. 'Salon de Arte' is Raum's matinee (morning) concert.


'Salon de Arte' is Raum's representative matinee concert held at 11 a.m. on the last Tuesday from March to November. This year, the matinee concerts in March and April were all canceled to prevent the spread of the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19), and this May performance is the first of the year.


The May matinee concert 'Van Gogh Meets Bernstein' features commentary by violist Lee Shin-gyu and a performance by the Arts Ensemble. Violist Lee Shin-gyu, a Juilliard School graduate, is famous as a 'classical curator' who explains classical music in an easy-to-understand way. In this performance, he will share interesting stories about artists loved worldwide, including Van Gogh and Bernstein, as well as artists representing London and New York.


The performance will include Paul Schoenfield's 'Cafe Music for Piano Trio, 1st Movement Allegro,' Leonard Bernstein's musical 'West Side Story' original soundtrack (OST) piece 'I Feel Pretty,' and Don McLean's 'Vincent.' Don McLean's 'Vincent' was inspired by Van Gogh's 'Starry Night' and was also used in the ending credits of the film 'Loving Vincent.'


Raum plans to provide a safe viewing environment by mandating temperature checks and mask-wearing for attendees on the day of the performance. Additionally, seats will be arranged to prevent crowding. Tickets can be reserved through Raum's official website, Interpark, Yes24, and others. For group viewing and detailed information about the performance, inquiries can be made by phone.



The 2020 Raum matinee concert 'Salon de Arte' will be held as a masterpiece commentary brunch concert. In the first half of the year, violist Lee Shin-gyu will provide commentary with the theme 'Music with Masterpieces,' and in the second half, film music director Puditoreum (Kim Jung-beom) will conduct performances themed 'Music with Films.'
