Book Synopsis Hwang Byungki by : Andrew Peter Killick
Book excerpt: This is the first book in English about an Asian composer who writes primarily for traditional instruments. Following a thematic approach, Killick draws on 25 years of personal acquaintance and study with Hwang Byungki, as well as experience in playing his music, to analyse the works and celebrate the career of this influential Korean composer, performer, and scholar. Using Hwang Byungki as a focal point, this book also explores how new music for traditional instruments can provide a means of negotiating between a local identity and the modern world order.
