SU:M

SU:M's name (pronounced "soom") translates as "breath" and it expresses the physical connection of these two women to the music they create - sometimes a soft sigh, sometimes a cry, sometimes a silent holding of breath. Jungmin Seo plays the gayageum (a massive 25-string zither) and Jiha Park plays wind instruments including the saenghwang (imagine the subtlest mouth organ, with 17 bamboo pipes).

They are an astonishing experience live - they've played Womex Cardiff and were seen at WOMAD last year.
