Mudang and the The Unforgotten Song
November 16, 2019 @ 8:00 pm - 10:00 pm
$10 – $20Piri virtuoso, master musician Gamin has teamed up with the Lydian String Quartet to create a powerful evening remembering and honoring the Comfort Women of occupied countries in East Asia, who were forced into sexual slavery between 1932-1945. Violinist Judith Eissenberg has written a lovely blog post about the concert.
I am honored that they will perform my Mudang (the title means female shaman) along with new works by Ki Young Kim and Yoon Ji Lee. Mudang was the first in my series of works composed for gugak (traditional Korean) instruments, and Gamin has championed it with a number of string quartets.
