KOREA FOUNDATION

The KF is calling upon all music fans to join the annual Cheonggyecheon Music Festival to be held at Cheonggyecheon Hanbit Park in Seoul from September 22 to 24.
  Offering a wonderful opportunity to enjoy various world music pieces alongside the city’s downtown stream, the festival will present Dutch jazz rap, Angolan pop music, a clarinet and guitar duo from Costa Rica, and a performance on the kanun, a traditional Turkish instrument. Also on the open-air stage will be a rare and special performance by a Paraguayan classical ensemble playing recycled instruments, as well as a French jazz band playing the popular Korean song, “The Jangchungdan Park That Mist.”
  The festival is set to run for only three days, but it will take audiences on a whirlwind tour of eight countries from across Africa, Europe and South America. For detailed information about the performers and program schedule, visit the event’s Facebook page (www.facebook.com/

* Entrance to the Cheonggyecheon Music Festival is free of charge, with no reservations necessary.
