@David Rubenstein Atrium (1887 Broadway @62nd St.) 

Join us this summer at the Atrium for the Lincoln Center debut performance of Gonia, a jazz ensemble with a sophisticated understanding of Korean rhythms and high-level performance. The group has established itself in the jazz scene and is drawing attention at home and abroad for their in-depth knowledge of Korean rhythms and prowess with traditional Korean instruments. Based on the traditional Korean rhythms on the janggu, Gonia has created a new style of K-jazz. In November 2020, Gonia’s fifth album, A Tension, was released and nominated for the Crossover Album category of the 18th Korean Popular Music Awards, where it received recognition for its value and achievements. The breath of Gutgeori, the joy of Jajinmori, and the dynamism that comes from Whimori are harmonized with improvisation and the beauty of jazz to create Gonia’s unique sound!
