Arirang - World Harmony Chorus
World Harmony Chorus performs Arirang, a 600 year old song from Korea, under the direction of Betsy Blakeslee, June, 2024. Choral arrangement by Alise Ojay & Daniel Steinberg. With themes of sorrow, separation, reunion and love, Arirang expresses Han, "the collective feeling of oppression and isolation in the face of overwhelming odds."
"My love, you are leaving me
Your feet will be sore before you go two kilometers!
Just as there are many stars in the clear sky
There are also many dreams in our heart."
