The "20th regular concert of the Clarinet Ensemble", where hearing-impaired youth took the stage, was successfully completed. This stage was evaluated as having fun and moving by playing musical instruments and enjoying music like a non-disabled person even if they had a disability.
The concert was hosted by broadcaster Ahn Hyun-mo, a promotional ambassador for the snail of love, at KBS Hall in Yeouido on the 22nd with the support of the hearing-impaired, the Love Snail (Chairman Lee Hae-hee).
The 20th regular concert selected songs representing the past 20 years under the theme of 'History' and presented various repertoires such as symphonies, tango, and K-Pop.
In particular, 35 members of the Clarinet Ensemble, the snail of love composed of deaf youth, played Astor Piazzola's 'Libertango' and Antonin Dvorak's 'New World Symphony No. 9' at the regular concert to express the freedom of music without boundaries even with hearing impairments. Although the members have hearing impairments, they wear hearing aids, operate artificial snail tubes, and communicate in spoken language through rehabilitation.
In addition, musical actor and singer Bae Da-hae, a promotional ambassador for the snail of love, and Kim Tae-woo of the group god participated as guests and took the stage. Kim Tae-woo performed a collaborative performance of 'Love Rain' and 'One Candle' with members of the clarinet ensemble, sending a message of support to all who were struggling. Singer Kim Tae-woo, Bae Da-hae, and host broadcaster Ahn Hyun-mo all participated in talent donations to support deaf youth members.
Visitors who enjoyed the concert praised the performance of members of various genres ranging from classical to K-Pop. Compared to non-disabled people, it was expected that it would be difficult to perform in an ensemble with other performers, but it was evaluated as the best concert that could not feel lacking at all. In fact, despite their natural role as students, the members are known to have been immersed in practice on weekends and nights ahead of regular concerts.
The concert was joined by the Woori Financial Future Foundation. Since 2023, the Woori Financial Future Foundation has been supporting hearing-impaired children and adolescents from low-income families along with the snail of love through the 「Look & Hear Project」.
Over the past two years, 335 people have been supported with artificial snail tube surgery, replacement of external devices, and speech rehabilitation treatment. Since last year, it has supported the operation of the Clarinet Ensemble, the snail of love, and has been striving to adapt to society and improve public awareness of deaf children and adolescents. Members supported through the Woori Rookie Project also took to the stage of this regular concert.
Lee Sung-hee, chairman of the Love Snail, said, `When the Love Snail Clarinet Ensemble was founded in 2003, not many people would have imagined deaf people playing music.' `I am proud of the members who have shown to thousands of audiences through twenty regular concerts that they can express themselves with music even if they are deaf.'
In addition, in the future, I would like to contribute to communication and harmony together without distinction between the deaf and the non-disabled through regular concerts with members of the Clarinet Ensemble," he added.
The entire video of the 20th regular concert of Woori Financial X Love Snail Clarinet Ensemble will be available on the official YouTube of Love Snail from next month.
