Experience traditional fusion music featuring the harmony of Korean and Western musical instruments through the "Lautarian : Korean Gypsy Project" with K0N, the first gypsy violinist in Korea, and Rami Seo, an accomplished gayakeumist and ethnomusicologist from New York. 
"Lautari" is an elite music group among Gypsy musicians. Performing artist, KoN, combines this with "an" from "Korean" and "musician" to describe Nuevo Korean Gypsy music. 

KOR
​'Lautari' 란 집시음악가 중에서도 엘리트 음악집단을 지칭하는 단어로, 여기에 KoN이 'Korean'과 'Musician'의 공통된 어미(語尾)인 'an'을 접목하여 “한국 음악인이 만들어낸 라우타리 음악”이라는 의미를 부여했다. <Lautarian : Korean Gypsy project> 를 통해서 한국 최초의 집시바이올리니스트 KoN과 뉴욕을 중심으로 활발한 음악활동을 하는 가야그미스트 Rami Seo의 음악세계를 만나볼 수 있다. 이번 공연은 한국악기와 서양악기의 조화, 국악과 서양음악이 조화를 이루는 새로운 경험의 시간이 될 것이다.
