Let's create music with Kunwoo Hong, on Listening Lyrics, April 26, 2024

Fri, 04/26/2024 - 5:10pm | Pieter Pastoor

Kunwoo.jpeg

My personal choice is to be around creative people. That of course does not only mean music, but today it does. I spent an hour with a jazz musician who is not only creative but also very articulate about his creative process. Kunwoo Hong creates music on his laptop with a program called Note Flight. He plays piano, but his true love is percussion. Kunwoo spent the hour going through his process of creating a song along with some of his finished work. Listen and marvel at how we humans thrive on creativity.
