The National Honor Festival is the highest-auditioned ensemble put on by KAIAC and KIMEA for participating Korean International Schools. Each ensemble has a guest conductor that is hired by KIMEA to come work with the students in rehearsals and for the performance.

The audition process for the National Honor Festival is tedious and very selective. The students who make the festival are the top performers within all KAIAC and KIMEA participating schools. We are very proud of our YISS musicians who were chosen for the ensemble below:

Band:

Chloe Kim (11)- Clarinet

Jason Vandeputte (12)- Alto Saxophone

Caleb Paik (10)- Alto Saxophone

Kyra Jun (11)- Horn

Choir:

Pricilla Kang (12)- Alto

Orchestra:

Andrew Kim (11)- Violin

Tiffany Kang (11)- Violin

Bonette Kim (11)- Violin

Tommy Kang (9)- Violin (alternate)

Serene Han (9)- Violin (alternate)

The festival will take place on February 17-18, 2023 at Seoul Foreign School.
