2026 Seoga Concert: Sherlock Holmes

〈Seoga Concert〉, the Gyeonggi Arts Center's flagship chamber series where books meet classical music, is new performance content that reads literature through music and listens to classical music as a story. In 2026 the stage is dressed around 'Sherlock Holmes,' the classic of world detective fiction.

Historical-mystery novelist Chung Myong-sup serves as host, recounting in an easy, engaging way the story behind Arthur Conan Doyle and the birth of 'Sherlock Holmes,' the fascinating backstories tied to the works, and their period context. Chamber performances expressing the mood and scenes of the work complete the picture, delivering the immersion of reading a detective novel in a single sitting. The performance reinterprets Sherlock Holmes's razor-sharp deduction and the atmosphere of Victorian London through classical music, offering a special experience where literature and music expand each other's power to move.

Even without having read the book, the performance alone lets you understand and enjoy the work; for those who already know the novel, it offers the chance to meet the classic from a new angle. Detective-fiction lovers, classical newcomers and family audiences alike can enjoy it without barrier.

Running 90 minutes, the 2026 Seoga Concert: Sherlock Holmes is a stage that lets you rediscover the charm of the classics through the singular performance experience of literature meeting classical music. The moment you step into the hall, you join Sherlock Holmes in piecing the case together — a special time of traveling the era through music.
