An orchestra from an orphanage in Busan will perform at Carnegie Hall in New York on Thursday, Eastern Standard Time.

The Carnegie Hall performance was arranged by world-renowned Korean conductor Chung Myung-whun and his organization, the Miracle of Music.

The Boy's Home orphanage orchestra started out as an ensemble for accompaniment at Masses in 1979. The orphanage is run by the Catholic group Sisters of Mary.

Chung visited the orphanage in 2005 and was impressed by the boys' musical talent, after which he had his third son help train the orchestra.
