A Boston’s night skyline with moonlit waters of the Charles River evokes a magic that inspired Mina Cho’s second musical narrative, entitled Samulnori Fantasy: Seasons. The narrative takes the form of Korean traditional Pansori (story telling in voice) with Samulnori [Korean traditional percussion quartet; a contemporary counterpart of Korean Pungmul (farmers’ band) and Namsadang (traveling entertainers) combined]. Furthermore, Korean traditional music is interwoven with the styles of modern Jazz and Gospel music throughout.


Seasons features a story of a moon rabbit named Rain the Rabbit, whose singing has the power to call forth the rain, and a young woman named Sunnie, who studies business in Boston, leaving behind her dream of becoming a master Pansori singer. After celebrating his retirement from 100 years of musical priesthood in Lunar Land, Rain the Rabbit is allowed to travel to the Human World, but for only one night of a full moon. A magical pathway between Lunar Land and the Charles River, named 7th Moonstar Street, is created for Rain’s trip, where he meets Sunnie. Powerfully connected through inspirational music and conversations, Rain and Sunnie begin to explore their passion for music and embrace a new season in their lives.
