19_0929 Festival of Dance and Gugak

Sunday, September 29, 2019, 3:00 PM
Jordan Hall, New England Conservatory
30 Gainsborough St. Boston, MA


Gugakis inherently improvisatory, and can be seamlessly played next to classical, jazz, and contemporary music. Six Gugak masters (Tae-baek Lee, Ji-young Yi, Wan-chul Won, Hyeun-bin Lim, Tae-young Kim) from Korea opens up a rare performance of authentic as well as contemporary collaboration with Boston Ballet artists (principals Seo Hye Han and John Lam), cellist (Kari Juusela), and Korean Traditional Dance Group (three-drum dance).

Program and Artists' Biographies can be found in the Press Release. An article to appear in Musical Intelligencer by Prof. Judith Eissenberg in Brandeis University and Boston Conservatory can be found here.
