SUMMARY:Korean Experimental Music Festival—Featuring the National Gugak Center and Del Sol Quartet
DESCRIPTION:The National Gugak Center—Korea’s foremost institution for traditional music—joins forces with the Bay Area’s acclaimed Del Sol String Quartet to offer California audiences a rare and resonant experience. The festival blends traditional Korean musical practices\, Western classical instrumentation\, and cutting edge music technology in the world premiere of a over 20 newly commissioned works by faculty and graduate student composers from UC Santa Cruz\, UC Berkeley\, and Stanford University. \nTwo concerts on Fri.\, Nov. 14 feature a first-of-its-kind ensemble pairing two gayageums—Korea’s zither-like string instrument—with a Western string quartet. In two additional performances on Sat.\, Nov. 15\, traditional Korean wind instruments—the piri\, saenghwang\, and daegeum—are transformed through real-time computer sound processing into a striking electroacoustic experience. \nThe festival culminates a two-year collaboration among the National Gugak Center\, the UC Santa Cruz Music Department\, UC Berkeley’s Center for New Music and Audio Technologies (CNMAT)\, and Stanford’s Department of Music and Center for Computer Research in Music and Acoustics (CCRMA).
