Geomungo Factory
★★★★★ PAMS CHOICE in Korea 2010 WOMEX Official Showcase in Greece 2012 ROSKILDE FESTIVAL in Denmark 2013 WORLD MUSIC ENSEMBLE GEOMUNGO FACTORY PHOTO BY EUNYOUNG KIM Five-star rating ★★★★★ LONDON EVENING STANDARD “Whatever you call it, it is original, powerful and thrilling. And certainly like nothing you have ever heard before.” Simon Broughton Top of world music magazine <SONGLINES> 3 GEOMUNGO FACTORY What makes Korea so special is the way it respects its distinctive past, while staying at the cutting edge of technology and innovation – and if there’s one group that sums that up in music, it’s Geomungo Factory (which is pronounced Ko-mungo Factory). The geomungo zither is over a thousand years old and you won’t fine an instrument like it anywhere else in the world. It has six silk strings and is played by hitting and pluking them with a short stick, giving it a deep, muscular sound, both rhythmic and melodic. Geomungo Factory have also created new instrument – the ‘Xylophone geomungo’, ‘the cello geomungo’ and the ‘electric geomungo’ with a wah-wah pedal. Like Konono No. 1 from Congo and Hanggai from Mongolia, Geomungo Factory sound ancient and contemporary at the same time. Geomungo Facoty includes three geomungo players, Yoo Mi-young, Jung Ein-ryoung and Lee Jung-seok, who are all traditional players, plus Kim Sun-a, who plays gayageum, the plucked zither with 18 or more strings, which is more commomly heard in Korea than the geomungo. “Most people think traditional music is boring,“ they say, “so we want to make geomungo music that -
Exploring Aspects of Korean Traditional Music in Young Jo Lee's
EXPLORING ASPECTS OF KOREAN TRADITIONAL MUSIC IN YOUNG JO LEE’S PIANO HONZA NORI Jin Kim, B.M., M.M. Dissertation Prepared for the Degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS August 2013 APPROVED: Adam Wodnicki, Major Professor Elvia Puccinelli, Committee Member Joseph Banowetz, Committee Member Steven Harlos, Chair of the Division of Keyboard Studies John Murphy, Interim Director of Graduate Studies in the College of Music James C. Scott, Dean of the College of Music Mark Wardell, Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Kim, Jin. Exploring Aspects of Korean Traditional Music in Young Jo Lee’s Piano Honza Nori. Doctor of Musical Arts (Performance), August 2013, 29 pp., 4 tables, 9 figures, 13 musical examples, bibliography, 32 titles. Since the 1960s, several gifted Korean composers, including perhaps most notably Young Jo Lee (b. 1943), have been internationally acclaimed for their work. In Western countries, however, there has been a scarcity of academic studies examining the artistry of the music of these Korean composers. Nonetheless, as one of today’s most recognized composers in Korea, Young Jo Lee has been invited to numerous international concerts, conferences, and festivals where his works have been played and discussed. A salient feature of his compositions is the fusion of Korean traditional music and the elements of Western compositions, such as in, for one distinctive example, his piano composition, Piano Honza Nori. This musical study describes and analyzes how Lee integrates Korean traditional elements with Western musical ideas in Piano Honza Nori. Results of this study will contribute to the limited literature on the analysis of contemporary piano composition that integrates Korean traditional elements. -

It will take place from 3 to 26 October CaixaForum hosts the 8th World Music Festival, a broad panorama fostering intercultural dialogue through music On Friday 3 October, the Iranian vocal and instrumental group Masters of Persian Music will launch this year’s World Musics Festival, an event organised annually by "la Caixa" Foundation. On this occasion, the Festival will highlight Persian culture, with three concerts that will give us different perspectives on the music and traditions of modern-day Iran, complemented by a lecture programme that will draw us to the past and present of the art and poetry of this age-old tradition. With a spirit unequivocally open to dialogue and to enriching cultural exchange, the Festival will also feature music from such countries as Palestine, Kurdistan and Tibet, with the participation of some of their most charismatic representatives, those who have contributed most to the revival, survival and diffusion of their respective traditions. Neighbouring cultures, such as the Portuguese, or distant ones, such as the Korean, also form part of the Festival, which moreover includes an interesting panorama of present-day African music from three different viewpoints: those of Tunisia, Mali and Angola. In addition to the aforementioned lecture programme, the Festival will be complemented by, among other parallel activities, a special concert by musicians from around the world who reside in Catalonia, three master classes in traditional Arabic singing, and four family concerts. -

Where Did the Old Music Go?
Where did the Old Music go? The "improved" musical instruments of North Korea J) Keith Howard Professor University of London Since the 1960s, the socialist regime of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (North Korea) under Kim II-Sung has sponsored a musical instrument institute known as the Minjok akki kaeryang saJpkwa to revise chiJnt'ong akki (traditional instruments) and enable them to match sOyang akki (western instruments). The resultant hybrids are known as kaeryang akki ("improved" instruments), a term in use in both the southern and northern states. Complex instruments are, by their very nature, elitist, yet kaeryang akki are required to respect socialist dogma; the resultant conflicts between state and art, 2 potential or real, are nothing new. ) In this paper, after discussing background unique to North Korea, I explore how development is justified. Kaeryang akki are meant to retain old sound timbres and hence to reflect the Korean heritage, for this is what juche, the state philosophy of self-reliance, demands. At the same time kaeryang akki are designed to be "progressive," duplicating diatonic scales and the flexibility of western models in an exploration and/or accommodation of developments from the world outside. This, together with the modification of 1) This paper is based on a 3-week visit to Pyongyang in June 1992. I am grateful to staff and students at the Pyongyang Music and Dance University (P'yongyang umak muyong taehak), who provide my sound examples and who taught me much about individual instruments. 2) For a survey of such issues, see Perris 1985: chapters 4 and 5. -
