KCC Home Theatre Series

As a friendly alternative to our temporarily suspended House Concert programme, we have introduced a new programme this year via the KCCUK YouTube channel, the KCC Home Theatre Series. The second season of the series begins in September and will focus upon classical music.

Hui-Ti (Eric) Wang (violin) & Yoon Seok (John) Shin (piano) duo and Kiyoka Ohara (flute) & Sooyeon Lee (cello) & HyunJeong Hwang (piano) trio, who were previously scheduled for the House Concert programme, will be performing in the first and second week of season Ⅱ, and the various classical musicians introduced in the "Beautiful Thursday" programme in 2019-2020 at Kumho Art Hall will be performing from the third to the sixth week.

"Beautiful Thursday" is a programme supported by the Kumho Asiana Cultural Foundation, which started with the "Kumho Gallery Friday Concert" in 1997, followed by "Kumho Art Hall Friday Series" and was newly introduced as "Beautiful Thursday" in 2007 to mark its 10th anniversary.

The "Beautiful Thursday" series, which has become one of Korea's representative chamber music programmes, has been filling the stage with leading Korean musicians and other masters, providing high-quality classical music to Korean audiences.
