The Ukrainian Children's Choir from Odessa will perform at the Seoul Arts Center in southern Seoul at 7:30 p.m. on Dec. 10. Odessa, a harbor city on the Black Sea, is the cultural center of the Ukraine where the Kiev Ballet also originated.

Established in 1981 with children between 10 and 18 years old, the choir has been very popular throughout the former Soviet Union and in Eastern Europe. In 1997, the choir was invited to sing before the Pope in the Vatican.

The choir's Seoul program includes various Ukrainian folk songs, Orthodox Church chants, Christmas carols and classical masterpieces such as Schubert's ``Serenade,'' Mozart's ``Ave Verum'' and Vivaldi's ``Gloria.''

 

Tickets range from 20,000 won to 50,000 won. For more information, call (02) 548-4480 or go to  www.seoularts.com.
