RE-RIPPED/RE-UPPED with New Mirrors!- The Tori Ensemble represents a collaboration among some of the most respected musicians of the Korean classical tradition and the New York avant-garde scene, transcending musical borders in its acclaimed work that mingles jazz, new music, and ancient Korean traditions ranging from shamanistic rituals to pansori vocals. While this fits equally well into Avant Garde or Jazz, it is, in its heart and soul (Seoul?!?), utterly Korean in its sound world and aesthetics. Led by powerhouse Geomungo virtuoso Yoon Jeong Heo, the Tori Ensemble has explored the possibilities of fusing Korean improvisatory traditions with a touch of free improvisation. They've performed at WOMAD and just recently had a two city tour on the east coast of the US.

Here's the blurb from the WOMAD website:
As talent shows go, it's didn't exactly have the drama of The X Factor, but it was certainly infinitely more musically discerning. When Resonance Korea, an organisation dedicated to the propagation of South Korea's musical heritage, put out an open call for a competition with a prize of a fully funded WOMAD appearance, the field was both plentiful and of an exceedingly high grade. The eventual winners were Tori Ensemble, a quartet whose eerie yet beautiful compositions straddle Korean traditions, jazz and contemporary music. Led by the beguiling geomungo player Yoon-Jeong Heo (her instrument being a kind of zither), it's entirely fitting that the ensemble's prize should be a performance on the Charlie Gillett Stage. The late broadcaster made a visit to South Korea shortly before his untimely death and was no stranger to playing Yoon-Jeong Heo's records on his radio show.
