Ak Dan Gwang Chil - Yeong Geong Geo Ri

9 musicians in a soundstage lit with a soft purple red fill. the 3 vocalists are standing inside a large, black, cubic frame. 2 zither players are sitting to the right. 2 wind instrument players are to the left. 2 percussionists are sitting behind the cube.

it seems there are quite a few of these groups who go from the korean channel SOUNDSTAGE to NPR's Tiny Desk/KEXP that meld traditional korean folk songs with newer compositional techniques and tonalities. they're all very good!

in this track, i love the call and response vocals, the screeching flute, the dynamic escalation. really cool.
