Korea - Land of the Morning Calm: Contemporary Compositions II
presented by Peter Duffy (2 Feb 2003)

Compositions growing out of contemporary Korean music culture contain great diversity of tones and rhythms, reflecting a profoundly complex society, a society equally happy sitting serenely in meditation on a sacred mountain as spinning dizzily through a maze of urban oddities. This presentation features works from a delightful collection of composers and musicians including Kim Suk Chul, Kim Nam Soon, Kim Won-Son, Hyo-shin Na, and Hwang Byungki.
