Sinawi,sometimes spelled shinawi,is a traditional Korean music. It is performed improvisationally by a musical ensemble,and traditionally accompanies the rites of Korean shamanism. [1] The style first emerged in the Chungcheong and Jeolla provinces,but is now widespread. The traditional sinawi ensemble followed the principle of sam-hyeon-yuk-gak (三絃六角),with two flutes,a haegeum ,a daegeum ,a janggu hourglass-drum,and a large buk drum. However,today other traditional Korean instruments such as the gayageum and geomungo are also often included.
