Biography

P'ansori is a form of folk opera, with a lone singer bringing a multitude of roles of life for up to eight hours, unaided by conventional theatrical elements! Kim So-Hee's vocal powers have earned her the title of "intangible national treasure," an honor also bestowed upon her three accompanists on the 1972 tour which resulted in this Nonesuch recording. ~ Myles Boisen, All Music Guide
