gamin & ensemble: Korean Music & Beyond

Robert Browning Associates, Lotus Music & Dance, and Roulette present in association with The Korea Society and the Korean Cultural Center New York: gamin & ensemble: Korean Music & Beyond

This entrancing program of traditional Korean music (rooted in shamanic rituals and agrarian life) and contemporary music influenced by Korean culture is led by the engaging master multi-instrumentalist gamin (piri -double-reed oboe, saenghwang - mouth organ, and taepyungso – double-reed horn). Her extensive credits include being a principal player at the National Gugak Orchestra for a decade, performing in the Silk Road concert with Yo-Yo Ma in Seoul, and touring the world. The program features improvised music for rituals, percussive farmer's music, and modern works. gamin will be joined by Satoshi Takeishi (percussion), Vong Pak (janggo - drum), Jeff Fairbanks (piano, trombone), Choi Fairbanks (cello), Marty Ehrlich (bass clarinet, saxophone), and other artists to be announced.

This event is co-presented by Robert Browning Associates, Lotus Music & Dance, and Roulette, in association with The Korea Society and the Korean Cultural Center New York.
