Seoul Uri Sori Museum Hosts Spring 'Tok Tok Concert'

Preparation of Two Programs from March to April

The Seoul Uri Sori Museum announced on the 6th that it will hold the 'Uri Sori Tok Tok Concert,' a combination of Uri Sori lectures and performances, to welcome spring.

First, 'Uri Sori in Sanjo,' held in March, is the first program conducted in collaboration with the Seoul Donhwamun Gugakdang. 'Uri Sori Heard Through Traditional Korean Instruments,' held in April, is a talk concert program where visitors can enjoy the beautiful melodies of Uri Sori performed on the daegeum and gayageum at the museum's Numaru, while listening to interesting stories about traditional Korean instruments.

Pre-registration for 'Uri Sori in Sanjo' begins at 10 a.m. on the day, and pre-registration for 'Uri Sori Heard Through Traditional Korean Instruments' starts on the 3rd of next month. Applications can be made through the Seoul Public Service Reservation system, participation is free, and 20 participants will be accepted online on a first-come, first-served basis.

Kim Kyung-mi, Director of Seoul Museums, said, “This ‘Uri Sori Tok Tok Concert’ is an interactive performance where people can ‘see, listen to, and learn’ gugak, rather than a one-sided gugak performance,” and added, “We plan to continue offering various programs that narrow the gap between citizens and the stage so that more citizens can enjoy the excitement and elegance of our gugak.”
