The artists of Goryeo (918–1392) were interested in capturing Buddhist icons and bequeathed some great masterpieces, while the literati elite of Joseon was more attracted not only to idealized landscapes but also to the symbolism of plants and animals, such as the Four Noble Lords (Sagunja, namely, the orchid, chrysanthemum, bamboo, and plum tree) and the Ten Creatures of Longevity (Sipjangsaeng), including crane, tigers, and deer. Their art had been influenced by China and disseminated to Japan. The art of ancient Korea is represented by the tomb murals of Goguryeo (37 BCE– 668), which contain valuable clues to the beliefs of the early Korean people about humanity and the universe, as well as to their artistic sensibilities and techniques. Painting has always been a major genre of Korean art since ancient times. “Myeong-Seon (Meditation with Tea)” by Kim Jeong-hui (pen-name: Chusa, 1786–1856) (Joseon, 19th century) Painting and Calligraphy These traditional musical instruments are generally divided into three categories: wind instruments such as the piri, daegeum, danso, and taepyeongso stringed instruments such as the gayageum, geomungo, haegeum, ajaeng, and bipa and percussion instruments such as the buk, janggu, pyeonjong, pyeongyeong, kkwaenggwari, and jing. Of the numerous folk songs, Arirang-inscribed on UNESCO’s Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2012-is particularly cherished by the common people and there exist many variations with special lyrics and melodies unique to each region such as Miryang, Jeongseon, and Jindo. Traditional Korean music is typically classified into several types: the “legitimate music” (called jeongak or jeongga) enjoyed by the royalty and aristocracy of Joseon folk music including pansori, sanjo, and japga jeongjae (court music and dance) performed for the King at celebratory state events music and dance connected with shamanic and Buddhist traditions such as salpuri, seungmu, and beompae and poetic songs beloved of the literati elite such as gagok and sijo. King Sejong’s efforts to reform the court music led not only to the creation of Korea’s own notation system but also to the composition of special ritual music called Jongmyo Jeryeak to be performed during the royal ancestral ritual (Jongmyo Jerye) in the Jongmyo- inscribed on UNESCO’s Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2001-and Yeomillak, or “Joy of the People.” The term gugak was first used by the Jangagwon, a government agency of late Joseon responsible for music, to distinguish traditional Korean music from foreign music. The history of music in Korea should be as long as Korean history itself, but it was only in the early 15th century, during the reign of King Sejong of the Joseon dynasty (1392–1910), that Korean music became a subject of serious study and was developed into a system, resulting in the creation of the first mensural notation system called jeongganbo in Asia. The term gugak, which literally means “national music,” refers to traditional Korean music and other related art forms including songs, dances, and ceremonial movements.

Learning about my students, teaching them, growing with them, laughing with them, and helping them to love learning.Performance of Yeomillak (“Joy of the People”) court music composed during the reign of King Sejong in the 15th century activities, learning about child development, etc, etc! Its so fun though, I love it. My days are filled with teaching strategies, lesson plans, p.e.
#Antique kaleidoscope plus#
I really like the way it turned out, and it was still really comfy! A definite plus for me! I had another long day, filled with classes and appointments.studying elementary education can be so tiring.


This outfit mixes plaid, stripes, and polka dots in the same color scheme of blues, browns and beiges and dark reds. I know this outfit may not seem like a big style risk, but I've always been big on matching, and especially not mixing multiple prints in the same outfit, so this truly is a big leap for me.

I get stuck in a comfort rut so easy, and I forget to take risks.and I really want to change that. I am really, really trying to be adventurous with my clothing.
