WMI Concerts

Spectacular percussion dialogues, shamanic chants and acrobatic dances! Korea’s Noreum Machi troupe has been noted for its performances of the samulnori percussion music that has captivated audiences throughout the world over the past three decades. An exhilarating modern adaptation of the ancient p’ungmul nori farmers ritual, samulnori represents the soul of Korea and helped galvanize the student movement and re-engage Koreans with their traditions. The group is led by Kim Juhong, who studied with Kim Duk Soo, an original member of Samul-Nori.

The tour of Noreum Machi is made possible by a grant from Mid Atlantic Arts Foundation in partnership with the National Endowment for the Arts Regional Touring Program.
This program is supported in part by American Express.
Presented in association with Asia Society.
