NantaNanta is a non-verbal performance of samul-nori rhythms that dramatise customary Korean percussion in free style. It integrates unique Korean traditional tempos with OST (also known as ‘Original Soundtrack’) that pertains to songs written specificallyfor Korean movies and drama.2. Jang-gu DanceJang-gu dance is a newly created female dance originated from Pungmulgut, which is outdoor festival music.The dance is performed either solo or in a group. The dancers demonstrate their brilliant artistry and dance techniques, wearing Korean traditional dresses. Jang-gu dance, with its fast steps and cheerful movements, is one of the most popular folk dances to represent Korean culture and tradition. 3. Samul-nori 'Utdali-Galak’Samul refers to the four percussion instruments: the kkwaenggwari the jing the jang-gu and the buk (small gong) (large gong) (hourglass drum) (drum). The music has been newly made for an indoor stage in 1978, based on the Pungmulgut, an outdoor performance. Samul-nori is a very lively and vibrant percussion ensemble that displays vivid rhythms and harmony of improvisation driven by the players’ enthusiasm. Utdali-Garak refers to one of the rhythms commonly found in the provinces of Gyeonggi-do and Chungcheong-do, South Korea.Prepared by Andrew Jackson, Bronia Kornhauser and Annette Bowie ................
