Performance
Detail
emphasizes
the tolerance of Korean traditional music encompassing various generations,
cultures and genres, and pays attention to its philosophical boldness dealing
with all matters of the universe as human adapting himself to nature. The music
reinterprets moon, star, and universe, the main motives of Korean traditional
music, with musicians’ own young perspectives and expresses them with the
explosive energy of percussion, and the delicate melody of string to deliver
catharsis and comfort to audiences across the world. Through it, we aim at
expressing our dreams of harmony and the beauty of rapport and paradoxical
sorrow using the sounds of nature; how painters try to portray the beauty of
nature with each stroke of their brush, we strive to express nature’s beauty
seen as ubiquitous to the common eye, in our sense, to the common ear.
