Ottawa Symphonic Ensemble performs for Japan aid
The Ottawa Symphonic Ensemble (OSE) and the Korean Embassy of Canada hosted the Experience Korea! Festival and Exhibition March 26 at the Canadian Museum of Civilization.
The event was originally planned as a fundraiser gala to support the ensemble, but in light of the recent earthquake and tsunami in Japan, the OSE’s Board of Directors and the Korean Embassy decided to donate half of the proceeds towards Japanese relief efforts, according to a message written in the program by Sheila McKay, the ensemble’s secretary-treasurer.
