| Description | The Australian Embassy is holding the “Meet Australia at Ewha” festival in May at Ewha Womans University, to celebrate the 50th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Korea and Australia. The festival includes exhibitions by Australian artists, performances and poetry readings.
The Australia Ensemble will perform during a chapel service at the university auditorium on May 18 at 10am. Formed in 1980 and resident of the University of New South Wales in Sydney, the orchestra performs internationally, mainly in America, Europe and Asia, as the main ensemble of Australia. Australia Ensemble will also conduct a master class for students in the music college at 12:30 p.m. on the same day. “When it comes to Australia, Korean people often think of visible images such as a vast continent, the Opera House, Koalas and Kangaroos,” said Ambassador Sam Gerovich. “The event ‘Meet Australia at Ewha’ will be a good opportunity for people in their 20s to experience and understand the diversity of Australian culture.” |
