NOREUM MACHI With spectacular displays of virtuosic drumming, elaborately costumed dancing, breath-taking flurries of wailing oboes, ensemble vocal play and joyous gong-bashing, Noreum Machi bring a galvanizing energy to the art of Samul-Nori, a modern staged adaptation of a celebratory rural ritual with origins in shamanism and animism, performed by itinerant minstrels, that was recreated in the 70s by the group of the same name, using traditional instruments such as janggu, jing, buk and kkaaenggwari.
