This interactive program at the Winona Public Library introduces participants to the gayageum instrument and the traditions of Korean music. Through a live performance, stories, and musical activities, participants will learn about the history and unique sound of the instrument, sing a Korean folk song, and have the opportunity to try playing the gayageum. This is great for children & adults. Dr. Soojin Lee is a professional performer on the gayageum (a traditional Korean string instrument) and teaches gayageum, Korean drumming, piano, and general music. She holds over 20 years of teaching experience from individual instruction to large groups. Her wide variety of experience includes teaching as a high school general music teacher in Korea, a private instructor of gayageum and piano, and a school residency of Korean music and drumming in U.S. schools.
Before coming to the United States, she worked for the National Korean traditional music high school as a gayageum and general music teacher. Soojin has her Bachelors and Masters degrees in Korean music from Seoul National University, South Korea and a Masters degree in Social Sciences from the University of California, Irvine. She received her PhD in music education at the University of Minnesota.
