Greetings from the Director

Music is an abstract art that deeply affects our minds.

 

Music mirrors our life. It transforms our emotions and reflects the sublime yet complex human mind through its various components.

Music has the power to connect people as we perform and enjoy it together and creates harmony in the world. 

 

Classical Music is one of the exquisite, profound accomplishments of human civilization that is composed of humankind’s great creativity and architectural minds.

 

When music flows through the air and touches my soul, I have beautiful dreams and feel a surge of pure joy. I hope the festival will be able to lighten up and unite everyone’s hearts and bring appreciation for music and nature.

With warmth,

Grace Soonjoo Moon
