Tori Ensemble at WOMAD Charlton Park
It was midday on Sunday, the third day of the WOMAD festival at Charlton Park and after a big Saturday night, there was already quite a crowd gathering at the Charlie Gillett stage. Its an architecturally pleasing structure, defined by its projecting canopy, which depending on your outlook, resembles either an upturned brim of a Stetson or a shark’s jaw looming out of the sea. It provides shelter from both rain showers and the sun’s strong rays and with fine acoustic properties, it’s perhaps the near perfect open air setting for a more intimate performance.The audience had gathered early, in order to secure prime position in front of the stage. Here they stood, ten deep before giving ground to the trip hazards and impassable pathways created by those who prefer to drag their camping chairs around. They were all here to experience one of WOMAD’s strengths, the introduction to “music you don’t yet know” and all eagerly waiting for Sunday’s opening act, the Tori Ensemble, a group of four master musicians from Korea. Two men and two women all steeped in folkloric musical traditions and also the more classical court aristocratic chamber music of Korea.
Formed in 2007, under the leadership of the geomungo player, Heo Yoon-jeong, they are not afraid to reinvent the century old rule book by incorporating elements of jazz, improvisation and contemporary music. Although they have a number of performances in the United States under their belt, they have only played to small audience in the UK at London’s Korean Cultural Centre as part of February’s Great Full Moon Festival. WOMAD Charlton Park was effectively their UK debut.
In a similar manner to Qawaali singers, the group were seated on the floor of the stage, dressed in modest wrap round silk over tunics in co-ordinating colors of purple, grey and lime. From left to right were, Kang Kwon-Soon (vocals) Heo Yoon-Jeong (geomungo) Lee Suk-Joo (bamboo flute and bamboo oboe) and Min Young-Chi (percussion and Korean hourglass drum). As I had missed Kim Eun-Jung’s recital at the University of Sheffield and hadn’t yet explored to the Songlines special covermount CD, this was my first introduction to Korean music.
