A UNIQUE MEETING OF OLD AND NEW, EAST AND WEST.

Part classical and part folk music, pansori is an astounding musical theatre style of epic storytelling in song steeped in Korean tradition.

Drawing on selections from the pansori classics as vehicles for improvisation, Daorum incorporates Korean traditional rhythms, contemporary jazz improvisation and electronica to create an exciting high energy cultural exchange. These combined forces offer a remarkable musical interaction.

"...a sonic portrait of Korea's hidden character interweaved with a sense of Australia's vast space and jazz pathos from the United States." Living Arts Korea
