Kyungso Park is a contemporary composer and improvising gayageum player who freely crosses and breaks down borders between traditional and contemporary music. Since her debut as a soloist in 2008, Kyungso has been endeavoring to contemporize the long tradition of the gayageum, releasing four albums including The Most Beautiful Connection , Chunaeng , and two EPs. In CosmoBreeze , her first solo EP released in 2008, she attempted to blend gayageum with house music, which made a strong impact on musicians of traditional Korean music. After these experiments, Kyungso began to consolidate her status as a gayageum soloist who composes and performs her own works with the release of Dung-tta , her first full album that features the gayageum as a solo instrument. Kyungso has performed throughout Europe and the Americas and has worked with Andy Sheppard , Benjamin Taubkin , Jaques Morelenbaum , Marcos Suzano, Carlos Malta, Youmna Saba, Piotr Kurek, Blitz the Ambassador , Renald Deppe, and Michael Bruckner, for which she was highly lauded.
