KOREAN SAMULNORI PERCUSSION-SOAS WORLD MUSIC SUMMER SCHOOL June 27-July 1 SamulNori is the contemporary form of traditional rural percussion bands (nongak, p'ungmul) stretching back into antiquity. Today, SamulNori is the most popular of Korea's traditional music, equally at home in the countryside or on urban stages, part of the student-led revival of interest in heritage but featuring complex rhythmic pieces. Today there are several dozen professional SamulNori bands and many hundreds of amateur bands active in Korea. The rhythmic structure is based on model cycles, changdan, elaborated through variants known as karak. The repertory splits into pieces performed seated and pieces danced. Four instruments are core: the double-headed hourglass drum (changgo), small hand-held gong (kkwaenggwari), barrel drum (puk) and large hand-held gong (ching). Performing SamulNori involves imbibing an aesthetic frame tied to Taoism and shamanism, in which the body and body movement become one with the instruments. The quartet of instruments, and the music itself, is said to create balance in the cosmos, combining yin and yang, thunder and lightning, wind and rain, and the four seasons. Introductory lectures on Korean music will also be offered by British and European specialists. Two classes will be offered, one designed for non-Korean speakers and one using Korean. Each class is restricted to 20 participants and will comprise a mix of sessions, some mixing all four instruments and some concentrating on single instruments. Course Leaders: Musicians from the National Center for Korean Traditional Performing Arts, Seoul. The workshop is sponsored by Korea Foundation and jointly promoted by SOAS and Nori Productions.
