David Hilowitz Music: Breathing New Life into the Kyogum’s Sonic Ghosts

In the hands of David Hilowitz Music, the kyogum—a traditional Korean harp—becomes more than an artifact; it’s a vessel of memory, resonance, and reinvention. This video is not just a restoration, but a poetic journey through dust, silk, and digital echoes, where each string is a filament of history and possibility. Hilowitz’s signature blend of curiosity and technical artistry guides us from thrift store serendipity to the shimmering threshold between acoustic and synthesized sound. The story unfolds like a foggy morning, revealing both the tactile beauty of wood and string, and the magnetic allure of sonic transformation. Prepare to drift
