"SEOUL, Feb. 27 (Yonhap) -- Renowned South Korean conductor Chung Myung-whun plans to visit North Korea this week for a rehearsal of a planned joint performance in Paris by North Korean and French orchestras, an official said Monday.
Chung is scheduled to travel to Pyongyang with his wife and his assistant on Tuesday for a three-day trip for the rehearsal, Unification Ministry spokesman Kim Hyung-suk said.
The trip came more than a week after Chung met with North Korean musicians in Beijing and agreed to hold the joint performance between North Korea's Unhasu Orchestra and the Radio France Philharmonic Orchestra that he leads.
Last week, he told reporters in Seoul that the joint orchestras will perform Brahms' symphony No. 1 at the Salle Pleyel theater in Paris on March 14.
In Beijing, Chung proposed a joint performance between the Seoul metropolitan orchestra and the North's Unhasu, but the North rejected the offer, citing "frosty political relations" with the South."
