Beatball 맹원식과 그의 재즈오케스트라 / Maeng Won-Sik & his Jazz Orchestra : 성불사의 밤 A Night At Seongbulsa - (05-04-2018) digital / (19-11-2018) LP CR 69039 There isn’t so much jazz in Korea. This is professional and modern sounding orchestral and rather filmic partially groovy music, which partly makes it hard to believe this recording is already over 40 years old, it surely does not sound dated at all, rather like a reinterpretation of music of these days mixed with jazz arrangements


문호월 / 文湖月- Moon Ho-Wol
유성기로 듣던 불멸의 명가수 / I heard an old Phonograph 23CD box 5 천리타향 작곡 / Tenrita Only one track from this album on the whole compilation of 23 CD box is found here. It starts with a Christmas bell and shows a positive vibe as a predictable / average styled, warm pre-trot song with certain distinctive jazz influences. It also includes a small footstamp solo in between. Info: http://ko.wikipedia.org/wiki/문호월 경상북도 김천에서 출생. 서울 휘문고보를 졸업한 후 바이올린연주가로, 작곡가로 활동하였다.

김인배 / Inbae Kim
KBS Media V.A.: 김인배-작곡집 / Inbae im - composer ; 2012-04-10/2013.05.15 **(ok-g) The compilation of songs from this composer show rather predictable, rather melancholic lush mellow trot music. Sometimes, outside the strings and band arrangements, in the brass parts you can hear he was known as a trumpet player too, but he does not give any instrument more credit than needed, trumpet solos still occur. The music sounds like lighthearted but pleasant light entertainment music, wh


박시춘 - Park Shi-Choon
Park Shi Choon was a composer and song teacher, who started as a critic/journalist, but generally started to define the Korean early pre-Trot music style. Only 4 tracks can be found on just one of the compilations of the 23CD box of early gramophone music. His “Love Composition” shows a few vibrating metallic vibraphone-like sound accents, and mostly acoustic guitar picking to a song, which is like a Korean interpretation of the pre-enka with guitar style from Japan. The seco


김수철 - Kim Soo-Chul (Little Big Man)
My introduction to my interest into Korean music culture started with the 'Soponye'-movie, which was accompanied by traditional music reintroduced with interpretations by Kim Soo Chul: 'Soponye' is a movie that changed my life and made me open to Korea and its music. The soundtrack is partly (half Western) classical music mixed with Korean folk elements and a somewhat different ? folk version of the pansori singing style. Styllistically in the movie it reminded me of the gyps


백영호 - Back Yeong Ho
Compared to Park Chun Seok, this composer provides a bit more predicable, still pretty tasteful arrangements and songs with a certain trot reference, in old school style, a tasteful undertaking that gave much credit to the composer rather than to the musical group playing, besides make this even more attractive by the great often female singers of that era. Recognised singers are Lee Mi Ja, Kwon Hyz Keong, Nam Sang-Kyu, Park Jae-Ean amongst some others. DISC01. 백영호 작곡집: 가요계의
