Original Concert Date: February 26, 2008.
The concert took place at the East Pyongyang Grand Theatre, with Lorin Maazel conducting a program anchored by two well-known pieces premiered at the New York Philharmonic: Dvorak's "From the New World" Symphony and Gershwin's "An American in Paris." The concert started with the national anthems of the USA and North Korea, and started with Wagner's Prelude to Act III of Lohengrin. The encore pieces included pieces from Bizet, Bernstein, and the popular Korean folk song Arirang.
ALL-ARTS also had the video in its archives, so some of the photos are screen shots from my PC.
