[National Orchestra of Korea] Hano Baeknyeon, Gangwon-do Arirang, Jeongseon Arirang - Conductor Kim Jae-young, Arranged by Park Beom-hoon, Collaborator Kim Yeong-im / [National Orchestra of Korea (NOK)] ● Performance name: Best Collection - Folk Songs ● Performance date: June 8, 2016 (Wed) 8:00 PM ● Performance venue: National Theater Haeo-reum 'Hano Baeknyeon, Gangwon-do Arirang, Jeongseon Arirang' - Conductor: Jae-young Kim - Performer: National Orchestra of Korea - Arranged by: Bum-hoon Park - This is an arranged song combining Gangwon-do's folk songs 'Hano Baeknyeon,' 'Gangwon-do Arirang,' and 'Jeongseon Arirang.' Composer Park Beom-hun combines several folk songs and performs them with a traditional Korean orchestra, thereby simultaneously revealing the musical functions and aesthetics of both folk songs and the traditional Korean orchestra. In this piece, the part that is as important as the songs is the natural connection that the arranger created between the songs. The first verse of the introduction is led by a piri solo, and the second verse, which is repeated, is led by a taepyeongso solo. These parts naturally suggest the mood and musical characteristics of the folk songs that will unfold. The charm of 'Han-o-baek-nyeon', which begins with a slow jungmori rhythm, lies in the fact that it is sung in a low register throughout. In particular, the contrast between the chorus that starts in a low register and the chorus that starts an octave higher can be said to be a unique characteristic of 'Han-o-baek-nyeon'. After 'Han-o-baek-nyeon', 'Gangwon-do Arirang' follows after the interlude featuring the taepyeongso and piri solos. In this song that begins with “Ari-Ari-Ari-Ssuri-Ssuri-Arariyo,” Park Beom-Hoon beautifully expresses the harmony of the scales (mi‧sol‧la‧do‧re) that make up the main notes, and he makes a huge national orchestra excited to the eotmori rhythm to accompany the singer. This is followed by the sound of the moktak that accompanies the recitation of Buddhist scriptures, and “Jeongseon Arirang,” which begins with a segmented beat, is a song that has a simple and sorrowful feeling like a woman’s sigh in its gentle flow. This song, which is usually sung in succession to “Gangwon-do Arirang,” starts with irregular beats of 2 beats, 3 beats, and 4 beats, and ends with a tempo that slows down in the latter part. The content of the story is sad and the melody is mournful, but in the middle, there is a part that seems to convey the story while swallowing tears, and the part that slows down after that has a screaming appeal.
