My name is Robert Sang-Ung Choi, and I sincerely hope you'll find our project as well as this fuegokoori website unique and exciting!
Explore our webpages for more about this dynamic cello and guitar ensemble, a combination of the fiery temperament of Latin America and Spain with soothing Asian tranquility. Hear how the roles reverse to reveal our preconceptions as being mere stereotypes. Explore the extraordinary blend of cello and guitar as fuegokoori takes you through three centuries of music from Japan, Spain, China and Latin America. And although they may sound like studio recordings, all of our CD recordings are LIVE and unedited, in order to bring you - the listener - the atmosphere and feel of 'being there'.
The latest CD is titled fuegokoori: Passion. As always, our focus is on music for cello and guitar, and we draw our inspiration from Spanish flamenco and dance, Chinese modern music and South American tango. What's more, we've incorporated a brand new sound into the mix, engaging the collaboration of one of the hottest guitar ensembles in Germany as our guests. This stunning new release will be available in November, so check back with us! Better yet, if you purchase our first CD, fuegokoori: Fire and Ice, through CD Baby!, we'll send you fuegokoori: Passion absolutely free, as an added bonus!
You can buy fuegokoori: Fire and Ice now at CD Baby! or contact us directly.
