Daegeum Concerto No. 1' adds modern techniques on the foundation of traditional techniques.
It uses the 'Sangryeongsan' theme of the wind instrument version of the 'Yeongsan Hoesang' suite as an overall melody.With the vibration and tones that are bent or pulled up (microtones), which are unique to the daegeum, this orchestral score continues its melody backed by its main key (Eb).
As a result, the modern melody of the solo part of the daegeum progresses even more smoothly to reveal an exquisite harmony of tradition and modernity.
