Experience the electrifying rhythms of the Samulnori Drummers, a traditional Korean percussion ensemble renowned for their high-energy performances that blend music, movement, and cultural storytelling. Rooted in Korean folk traditions, Samulnori uses four primary percussion instruments—the janggu (hourglass drum), buk (barrel drum), jing (gong), and kkwaenggwari (small gong)—to create dynamic, syncopated rhythms that captivate audiences.
Their performances are not only musically impressive but also a visual spectacle, with performers’ precise movements, vibrant costumes, and coordinated choreography bringing the music to life. Samulnori Drummers celebrate community, tradition, and the universal language of rhythm, offering audiences an immersive experience that is both entertaining and culturally enriching, perfect for festivals, Lunar New Year celebrations, and family audiences.
