This concert, organized as part of a cultural and arts sponsorship agreement signed with the Sejong Center in 2021, features past winners of the Shinhan Music Award, which discovers and nurtures promising classical musicians. Each year, these award recipients take the stage to perform.


This year, under the theme of "The Four Seasons," the performers expressed the colors and emotions of each season through music. The award winners themselves served as music directors, presenting creative performances. Over 20 past winners, including cellists Heo Jakyeong and Cho Yewon, pianist Ji Yungeon, and vocalist Gil Yoonsu, participated in the event, leading to a sold-out audience for every show over the four days.


A Shinhan Bank representative stated, "As the concert marks its fifth year, it has provided Shinhan Music Award winners with an opportunity to further grow as artists," and added, "We will continue to discover talented classical musicians through the Shinhan Music Award and strive to offer the public broader access to high-quality cultural and artistic experiences."



Meanwhile, Shinhan Bank established the Shinhan Music Award in 2009, becoming the first in the financial sector to do so. The award offers scholarships of up to 16 million won, overseas masterclasses, and various performance opportunities.
