This performance is part of the summer vacation "Summer Stories" series, presented as the original concert from the "Music Concert with Commentary for Youth" celebrating its 23rd anniversary since 2003, which sells out every year. This concert features two pianos, string ensembles, piano trios, orchestras, oboes, clarinets, vocals, waltzes with art songs, fantasias, animation theme songs, opera arias, musical numbers, ballet suites, orchestras, and traditional Korean music that you may have heard in advertisements and films. We invite all young audience members to experience this special 'concert with commentary' that offers a unique perspective on classical music never felt before.
