Experience a unique video celebrating Korean music, singing and dance in dialogue with objects from Korea and around the world.The British Museum collection provides a stunning backdrop to, and inspiration for, these performances, which blend centuries of cultural history with the energy and immediacy of live performances.From traditional Korean instruments such as a daegeum (a kind of large bamboo flute) and a gayageum (a 12-stringed instrument similar to a zither) to traditional and contemporary dance, as well as a soprano singer – each performance is inspired by a carefully selected object, creating connections between art, heritage and the global stories held within the collection.This video was created as part of the Resonate: Korean performing arts inspired by the collection event held on 21 November 2025 at the British Museum. Supported by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism of the Republic of Korea.
