During this concert, members of the Uljin Youth Orchestra performed a diverse repertoire, including Strauss's "Die Fledermaus Overture," soundtracks from Studio Ghibli animations such as "Howl's Moving Castle" and "My Neighbor Totoro," receiving enthusiastic applause from the audience.


In particular, violin soloist Park Hyunji, a second-year student at Uljin High School, who began playing the violin at the age of nine and has honed her skills over many years, delivered a flawless performance of the first movement from Haydn's "Violin Concerto No. 2 in G Major" on stage.


Pianist Hwang Shinhwi also took the stage as a soloist, giving a passionate performance of the third movement from Beethoven's "Piano Concerto No. 2." The joint performance by the guest ensemble Klang Im Plus and the Uljin Youth Orchestra further elevated the quality of the concert.


The final stage featured pieces such as "Another Day of Sun" from the La La Land soundtrack, Brahms's "Hungarian Dance No. 1," and a suite by Tchaikovsky, leaving a deep impression on the audience.


Jeon Hyosil, director of the Uljin Youth Orchestra, expressed gratitude, saying, "I am truly thankful for providing us with this grand stage every Saturday and again today. The Ghibli concert in February was also a precious opportunity for the children to gain stage experience and build their confidence," and added, "As a leader, I will continue to do my best to help the youth of Uljin fully develop their musical talents."



Lee Seyong, head of Hanul Nuclear Power Headquarters, stated, "I hope that through playing instruments, the children will strengthen their artistic sensibilities through music and, as adults, develop the inner strength to carry them through life. Hanul Nuclear Power Headquarters will continue to be a warm companion by consistently supporting music and various cultural and artistic content, so that local youth can nurture richer emotions and dreams."
