This is a full CD with music by the chulhyungeum. This instrument is an iron-stringed zither designed by Kim Yeong-cheol in the 40s. It is played by a plectrum and a pick on the left hand with possible techniques like vibration, gliding tones and bending tones. It became one of the first new instruments to play the Korean traditional style of sanjo (solo traditional music accompanied by an hourglass shaped drum). Definitely recommended for people interested in expanding the possibilities of the guitar.
