CelloGayageum was founded in 2016 by the Austrian cellist Sol Daniel Kim and Korean Gayageum player Dayoung Yoon. The inspiration to create this intercultural duo came from the "Pavillon of Unification" located in Berlin, a city shaped by a tragic history of war, division and reunion.
The duo was awarded with several prizes such as the ‘Soorim Culture Prize’ given by the Soorim Cultural Foundation in 2018 and in the same year also received a generous grant from the Seoul Foundation of Arts and Culture to produce their first album “South Wave, North Wind”. In 2020 they became the ‘Artist of the year’ of the Jeongdong Theater in Seoul.

The co-existence of the West and the Far East, which is also reflected by the musical and cultural background of both artists, acts like a catalyst and enables the musicians to discover new ways to make and create music. Sol Daniel Kim and Dayoung Yoon are constantly searching and experimenting with the goal to combine the characteristics of their respective musical cultures and instruments, finding the right balance and forming a harmonic symbiosis in sound and style.

Sinnoi was formed by Bora Kim, who mastered the Gyeonggi folk songs and Korean classical court music, and by Lee Wonsool, who has a unique presence in the domestic jazz scene. In a minimalist composition, Sinnoi opens a new musical horizon beyond the boundaries of each musician through the musical background of both musicians as well as their rich and deep musical interplay with improvised and delicate exchange. In addition, Electronic sound artist GODAM and Geomungo player Jungseok Lee have joined to create new styles of music that transcend genres and ages.
