Korean traditional musical instruments

Gayagum with 12 strings



Daegum, a large fife
I sketched them at a year-end party held at Korean architects' Association building. Several performers such as string quartet, singers, saxopone players played for the participants. I liked the sound of Daegum. The young player wore Korean traditional clothes in white. It was impressive.
