K-Music Festival 2024: SMTO & No-Noise
Southbank Centre, Purcell Room, SE1 8XX , [Venue Details]Find yourself in the bustling centre of a town square with No-Noise’s energetic and distinctive blend of Korean and Western sounds and instruments.
Performing with the outstanding musicians of the Seoul Metropolitan Traditional Orchestra (SMTO), No-Noise is a dynamic ensemble led by Lee Il-woo, the visionary behind the post-rock sensation Jambina, and Sung Si Young, the artistic director and vocalist of the band.
No-Noise seamlessly blends traditional Korean instruments such saenghwang (mouth organ), gayagem (zither with 12 strings), piri (double reed bamboo flute) and jing (large gong) with Western sounds of guitar and synthesiser that amount to pure harmony.
No-Noise's latest creation, 'Gwang Gwang, Geong Geong,' a spellbinding composition inspired by the vibrant energy of 'Gwangjang' (town square), a historically significant open space where the voices of the people would converge.
'Gwang Gwang' evokes the deep, resonant toll of a grand bell, symbolising the square's enduring spirit. Then, 'Geong Geong,' a Korean onomatopoeia for a loud sound, explodes into a lively cacophony, showcasing No-Noise's musical talent.
This programme is presented in partnership with the EFG London Jazz Festival and the Sejong Center.
