Hava Nagila Around the World: Yoonseok Lee Plays Onstage in South Korea

Harmonica music is not usually performed by a solo performer in concert. Its unique style is not only present in original compositions but throughout many different genres.

Yoonseok Lee, a Korean harmonica virtuoso, has a repertoire that ranges from popular and folk music to original compositions and contemporary music, from Bach to the Beatles.

And now he has incorporated Hava Nagila into his recitals.

Born in 1992 in South Korea, Yoonseok Lee started learning the harmonica at the age of 11 and majored in musicology at the Seoul National University where he graduated in 2017. In 2012, he gave his first public recital and orchestral debut.

In this video, Yoonseok Lee plays Hava Nagila with piano accompaniment.
