lee - nihm (tza 7715)
Born
in Taejon, Korea, Okkyung Lee moved to Boston in 1996, where she
received degrees in film scoring and improvisation. A ubiquitous
figure in the downtown scene since 2000, her playing is passionate
and uncompromising. For her debut CD she has created a sensitive
suite drawing inspiration from her Korean roots, the world of
mystery and the world of love. Featuring many of the musicians
she has grown close to in the past several years, Nihm is a brilliantly
conceived collection of music blending composition and improvisation
in surprising new ways.
