  • :D

  • that's a komungo..... not gayageum.

  • @tackydk it's called gayageum

  • what is the name of the instrument?

  • @iwholefoodsi ??? what in this period chinese thing went into korea? this is purely korean instrument and their traditional music.

  • Thanks for the insightful information. Yes, I do recall reading somewhere that at some point or another the Koto in Japan was played with a stick but it doesn't seem to have stuck for too long. As a matter of fact in acient records the name for the Korean zither is referred to as the "Kudaragoto", Kudara referring to Korea if I am not mistaken. I love the Asian zithers and then I love history also so I am always trying to find out more and more aobout them. Thanks again!!

  • In this period chinese thigs went to korea then japan so it has very low possibility(99%) to say koto is origin. Unfortunately most of korean preasuous historical thigs are changed or burned during invation of "youknow where" so it's kinda sad.

  • according to 三國史記, 王山岳 changed 七絃琴originated from china and made Geomungo. originally it was 4 string 17괘, know it's changed to 6string 16괘. King was sad becasue no one can play the 七絃琴 but 王山岳 changed the playing and composed about 100 songs. There is saying that the name is from Gogureo(~663) 'gum' and 'gom' with 'go' indicating string instrument so it represents Gogureo's instrument.

  • Where is this available on DVD?
