Diverse and rich, Korean traditional music expresses an optimistic spirit that transforms sorrow and despair into excitement and delight. This concert is based on the unwavering belief, passion, and hope that good memories have power and energy for the future. If music returns to us in person performance, it will summon beautiful pre-covid memories and transform them into positive energy for the future!
In this concert, we shall be able to create a “connection” of people who have become distant through the social distancing that started with the pandemic and just how much we would appreciate any help you would be able to give us in our endeavors.
