'Paldoyuram'(Cruising through Korea) - The Second Korean Traditional Music Project by 2nd Moon
'Paldoyuram' is 2nd Moon's new album with three Korean traditional music singers presenting a variety of Korean traditional music colored with 2nd Moon's uniqueness. The album interprets the Korean traditional music in a contemporary sense and makes it more comfortable for the public.
Namdosori singer Kim Jun-soo sings ‘Yukjabaegi’, ‘Heung taryeong’, and ‘Sacheolga’ in his powerful but heartrending voice along with 2nd Moon's new interpretation of Namdo sori (Korea traditional songs from southern regions of Korea).
Jeongga Vocalist Ha Yun-ju presents classic Korean songs 'Moraneun' and female solo ‘Woljeongmyeong’.
Jeongga is one of the music enjoyed by the noblemen differs from folk music such as pansori and other folk songs. It has complicated beats and needs delicate breathing techniques to sing, which makes it challenging to collaborate with different genres of music.
2nd Moon presents the new interpretation of Jeongga by adding musical stories to the original songs while making the best of the lyrics, rhythm, and delicate breathing techniques. By doing so, the new version of Jeongga became more comfortable for the ears of the public.
Gyeonggisori singer Chae Soo-hyun sings the various folk songs from different regions including 'Binari' and ‘Monggeumpo taryeong’. Her crisp voice in Gyeonggisori style presents more Gyeonggisori songs that were not included in the 'Modern Korean Folk Songs' album.
The album includes 'Kwaejina chingching nane' which was performed at the closing ceremony of PyeongChang 2018 Olympic Winter Games. And 'Baeknyeonui Arirang' (Arirang of 100 years) which was first introduced at the 100th-anniversary concert of the Korean National Provisional Government then recorded with the three singers for this album.
2nd Moon's musical journey for Korean traditional music started with ‘Pansori Chunhyangga’. And this time, it continues with ‘Paldoyuram’. 2nd Moon and the singers will travel every corner of Korea and meet with audiences at various stages, singing our traditional tunes together.
