[Mokpo=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Jeong Hyeong-seok] The Mokpo City Symphony Orchestra announced that the 126th regular concert, which was temporarily postponed due to the national mourning period, will be held on the 22nd at 7:30 PM at the Mokpo Culture and Arts Center.

This concert is the first installment of the "Great Composers Series" and is composed of works by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, a master of Russian classical music.

The first piece is Tchaikovsky's most famous and popular work, Piano Concerto No. 1, performed in collaboration with pianist Park Jong-hae.

Park Jong-hae is a pianist who won second place at the G?za Anda International Piano Competition held in Zurich, Switzerland, in 2018, and has been recognized for his overwhelming presence and performances that express true freedom.

The second half features Tchaikovsky's Symphony No. 6 "Path?tique," which Tchaikovsky himself regarded as his greatest masterpiece. It contains dramatic tension and delicacy within a solid structure, embodying the essence of Tchaikovsky's orchestration.

Jung Heon, conductor of the Mokpo City Symphony Orchestra, said, "We apologize to the citizens for postponing the regular concert due to unforeseen circumstances, and we will present a special performance where you can fully experience autumn Russian Romantic music."

The performance is free of charge for all seats, and advance reservations can be made online through Ticketlink starting from the 9th.
