Soprano Laura Aikin, mezzo-soprano A-Kyung Lee, tenor Young-hoon Huh, and a 140-piece joint chorus will take you through intimate solo and duo passages and powerful choral sections, transforming the fear of death to heavenly consolation of eternal life.<br /></font></font></div><font color="rgb(192,0,0)"><font color="#000000" face="Verdana" size="2"></font></font>
