combines the Dure band tradition of the Maeulnori Pungmul that has

character of Geolip band, who showed Pungmul and acrobatic feats
touring Gyeonggi and Chungcheong province.
Pungmul with Dure band characteristics consists of
Jisin Bapgi early in January, Duregut during the farming season,
etc., and the traditional theatrical Pungmul consists of Nanjanggut
at markets, Geolip to raise money for constructing big bridges or
temples, Pungmulnori that showed play and acrobatic feats touring
various places to raise the public fund for village, etc.
In Pungmul here, about ten tunes are played in diverse
and protean variations mainly using gong, drum, Jing (another type
of gong), Changku, small drum, taepyeongso, etc., and the tune of
Pungmul is generally fast, dynamic and cheerful.
Pangutmadang, in which about thirty people play, is energetic and splendid. Particularly, Mudongnori unfolded in various fashions is very excellent and is an intangible cultural property succeeding the tradition of our country¡¯s Pungmul from the early age. |
