We are happy to see you in 2013 Yeosu International Choir Competition & Festival.
Under the Slogan of “Songs of Ocean, Songs of Joy”, the 2013 Yeosu International Choir Competition & Festival will be a venue where people who love choral music gather to sing and share love together.
In particular, the 2013 Yeosu International Choir Competition & Festival is going to be held to celebrate successfully closed 2012 Yeosu World Expo, so it is more meaningful.
We believe it will be a wonderful Choir Festival that will be remembered in everyone’s heart for a long time with the beautiful ocean of Yeosu which was selected as one of the World’s four most scenic harbor cities.
We hope to see you all in Yesou.
Artistic Director Jae-Joon Lee
