From the Korean Culture Society:

Cheong-Bae was established in 2001 and has become a major traditional performing arts troupe about to take Korean Yeon-hee to the world. Yeon-hee is a Korean performing arts form traditionally regarded as the combination of rituals, music, dance, and acrobatics.

Recreated for the enjoyment of the contemporary audience, Movement for Sound ONE is a non-verbal performance based on the brilliant rhythms and beautiful performances found in Korean traditional and shaman music.  The performance includes Dae-Chwita gracing the ceremonial walk of by the royal family with Korean bugle and percussion and Binari wishing the happiness for god and people.  Cheong-Bae will also perform with New York jazz musicians improvising through the symphony of Korean traditional musical instruments and Western musical instruments.
