Performance presentation

'Double Bill', This program is an opportunity to enjoy the traditional music of two countries. The audience can understand and appreciate those and more accurately compare the two.

New paradigm of ‘our times, our music’ that the young traditional artists of Taiwan and Korea express about their own countries.

3PEOPLEMUSIC, a trio comprising three traditional Chinese instrument musicians with passion on music: zheng/KUO Min-chin, zhongruan/PAN I-tung and dizi & xiao/JEN Chung, began in November 2013. The founders rebuild traditional music from a contemporary perspective to create music of the day. Unlike the sense of distance from the traditional concert, they try to bring the warm and cordial feeling with no distance to the audience through the form of salon concert to create a new possibility of music.

 All the pieces are composed and arranged by the members of 3PEOPLEMUSIC, currently the arrangement is a trio for zheng, zhongruan, dizi and xiao. To Search for more inspiration, they collaborate with other instruments intensely and commission composers. Since its inception, in addition to the outreach concerts, 3PEOPLEMUSIC regularly holds themed concerts and builds network with different type of arts. Through music, they are striving to be heard all around the world.

“DUO BUD” is a contemporary music group started and organized by Production BUD. DUO BUD conducts various musical collaborations led by the Janggu, a traditional Korean drum, played by Sora Kim. Alongside the Gayageum, traditional Korean zither, played by Jihye Lim, and music composed by Miji Yang, DUO BUD has started a new concept to traditional Korean music, a new color that is able to be enjoyed. It is a concept that is completely different and refreshing, something that matches the taste of the 21st century. Mysterious, profound, and pure, through the music of DUO BUD, every performance brings Spring back around germinating a new bud, each bud growing into a different flower without any limits.
