GongMyoung, meaning ‘resonance’, is a quartet that presents traditional Korean music with a contemporary twist.

Playing a range of instruments, it is not uncommon to hear the sounds of up to 30 instruments during a single performance. Blending melody and rhythms with the power of Korean drums and the delicacy of its percussion, GongMyoung has also worked with television, drama and interactive media artists.

As well as writing their own music the musicians have also created their own instruments specific to their unique sound.

This performance is brought to you by the Korean Cultural Centre UK (KCCUK) and the Korean Culture and Information Service (KOCIS) with the kind support of the Korean Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism.
