Hi, I am currently doing a music research on this piece and a cuban piece. I would like to know more about this piece. Is okay if you can inbox me like the title, instrument, history behind it if it is possible. And do you have a score for this piece? It's beautiful.
@kaylarouge i'm not the one who posted niether who played but i will give u some basic ideas XD
the song is called "Arirang" (아리랑) it is Korean tradition music (i should say it's Korea folk music). the instrument is called "gayageum" (가야금), it's Korean tradition instrument. it's a pluck with 12 strings.
I'm sorry that i can't write about history behind it.... i hope this info helps u :D
This song is Arirang,and lots of different versions exist based on places. This is the most famous version which people in seoul and kyongki province have song.
Great ! I know the traditional instrument has 12 strings. How many strings is this one? I just bought a 22 stringed Dan Tran from Vietnam. Thank You, Keith
This is the new 21-string version kayagum, huh? I was actually trained on the original 12 string which may (or may not) be easier depending on your level. More advanced things are harder on a 12-string whereas the tonal range is obviously a plus for the 21-string. I should try a 21-string one of these days =)
Wow, two thumbs up!! Such a wonderful instrument. I remember trying to play Gayageum for 30 mins straight and the skin peeled off from my fingers. >O<;;
Actually it depends one the type of instrument...the nylon stringed must be played with a pick, or plectra, but the steel stringed is only played with the fingertips.
You can play it with picks or without.... the Mongolains play the lower strings (the lower tones) by fingertips and the higher with 2 or 3 picks. The instrument here is the "Chinese style" Kayegum
That's one of the most beautiful instruments in the world. You really should manifest your arts more and celebrate the arts and living free. Quite being too conservative and modest to do so. It's OK to express yourself, speak English regardless of your level of speaking, and just be yourselves. Be real. Thanx.
well, I posted the video but I am not the person playing it. I took a 3 months Gayageum workshop at the National Center for Korean Traditional Performing Arts in Seoul. The person in the video, Eun Sena, is a teacher at that Center. She kindly allowed me to take this and the other videos.
if you like this instrument, I reccomend you to look for the same kind but from another countries. They look quite similar since they are historical related, but the sound and melodies can be quite different. Try for example Gucheng (China), Koto (Japan) and Dan Trank (Vietnam). From Korea there is also a very interesting one called Komungo, and one similar in shape but played with a bow called Ajaeng.
the name of the korean folk song is 'arirang'
I really like it

I think it is just called Arirang. Always heard if you have seen the "Pyongyang Mass Games" videos.
You might be able to get chords for it. I haven't found anything.
