Musok eumak

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Musok eumak (Korean무속 음악; Hanja巫俗音樂) or muak (무악; 巫樂) is the traditional Korean shamanistic music performed at and during a shamanistic ritual, the gut. Music performances consist of singing, dancing, and percussion music.[1][2]

It is not performed solely for spiritual rites, but also allows experiencing the archetype of traditional Korean music.[2]
