Virtuoso Concert by Faculty of School of Korean Traditional Arts Enthralled Sejong City

The School of Korean Traditional Arts of K-Arts hosted the “2024 K-Arts Korean Traditional Music Master Concert” at the Sejong Arts Center in Sejong City on 20 September.

The School of Korean Traditional Arts was established in 1998 to academically study and enhance the performing practice of traditional arts oriented around instruments, singing, and dance to cultivate the experts adapting to new times. The School of Korean Traditional Arts provides a comprehensive curriculum designed to create the performing arts to suit the Korean traditional art form. It thereby gives classes embracing academic theories and practices of related departments – Department of Korean Traditional Music, Department of Korean Traditional Music Composition, Department of Korean Traditional Dramatic Performing Arts, Department of Korean Traditional Dance, and Department of Korean Traditional Arts Theory. The professors of the school, who are also masters of our time, presented the audience with the different genres of performances made of gayageum, geomungo, haegeum, piri, percussion, pansori, palace and ethnic dances, samul-nori, and mask dance.

The school dean Sung Kisook commented, “This event is the school’s iconic brand concert that delivers the essence of traditional arts. I believe Korea’s representative masters’ stage must have presented an unforgettable experience to their audience.”
