    The Tori Ensemble represents a collaboration among some of the most respected musicians of the Korean classical tradition and the New York avant-garde scene, transcending musical borders in its acclaimed work that mingles jazz, new music, and ancient Korean traditions ranging from shamanistic rituals to pansori vocals. Composed of Korean masters and leading names from New York,s cutting-edge music scene, the group features Yoon Jeong Heo (geomungo-zither), Erik Friedlander (cello), Kang Kwon Soon (vocals), Young Chi Min (daegum-flute, changgo-drum), Ned Rothenberg (clarinets, shakuhachi-flute), and Satoshi Takeishi (percussion).

    “Amid all the painful attempts to modernize traditional music there sometimes comes a work that reinvents traditional music with such authenticity, power and originality that all you can do is drink it in with grateful ears.” – Washington Post
