![]() Honored to see my album 'CROSSROADS: Live in Amsterdam' nominated for the Korean Music Awards ‘Best Global Contemporary Album’ ! 🌟 I would like to share this honor with the two musicians who took part in the performance, Cisem Ozkurt and Johannes Fend, and the sound engineer Udo Pannekeet. Thanks to Sena Fonds, Amarte Fonds and Roode Bioscoop for making this project possible. 🙏 📍English translation of the review At first glance, this duo performance sounds similar to the free improvisation of free jazz, but in fact, it is made up of a flow of melodies that were planned in advance by the composer. The contrast between the provocative violin and the contrabass that creates a subtle yet heavy tension, and even the reverberation of the live space, create a mutual musical synergy that sharply provokes our ears and emotions throughout, which is quite impressive. Composer Nubim, who uses the grammar of modern music that breaks away from the existing harmonic system and the unconventional sound expression of jazz as her creative framework, successfully creates a musical contrast by using the expressions of the performers that fit her concept as a stepping stone. / Selection Committee Member Kim Hee-jun 📍Video of track 1 : https://youtu.be/RNeCTlrKXoY?si=5wEY40KbciDYPtXE 📍Full album (Spotify) : https://open.spotify.com/album/0O1zfqDsEB8DaE90P0mozd?si=AB5PwKnrQDm0aPJdNidaWA

Nubim's new project is coming on!
Composer Nubim‘s multicultural project ’Connectivity‘ performed by Nubim Kim Group will be presented in Rotterdam in June with the support of the City of Rotterdam, and in Korea in August at the invitation of the Korean national festival. The Dutch ensemble led by a Korean composer performing under the auspices of national institutions in both the Netherlands and Korea will be a meaningful example of cultural exchange between Korea and the Netherlands. Nubim Kim Group이 연주하는 Nubim의 신작 프로젝트 ‘Connectivity‘가 로테르담 시의 후원으로 오는 6월 로테르담에서, 한국의 국립 페스티벌의 초청으로 8월에 한국에서 선보입니다. 한국인 작곡가가 이끄는 네덜란드 앙상블이 한국과 네덜란드에서 각각 국립 기관의 후원 하에 공연을 갖는 일은 한국과 네덜란드 양국의 문화교류에 있어 의미있는 사례가 될 것입니다. 저의 4개 작품이 전 세계 출판되었습니다.
