Musician and distinguished solist gamin will discuss and demonstrate traditional Korean music and wind instruments: the piri—a double reed instrument similar to the oboe; the taepyeonso (a double-reed horn); and saenghwang (a type of mouth organ). In her new album, Nong, the title refers to the ancient Korean meaning of “to play,” and is the central idea for her latest project, discovering new ways of playing between musical instruments and forms from different cultures. The ensemble gathered in Nong combines both East and West, such as the instruments, composers, musicians and ideas, allowing them to all “play” together and allows us to imagine a new musical art and creative work.
