Also found in: Wikipedia | 0.02 sec. |
p'ansori(Korean; “story singing”) A form of sung folk narrative. The form seems to have originated during the reign of Sukchong (1675–1720). Once a narrative performance that incorporated shamanistic chants, p'ansori became a vehicle for treating popular customs and everyday life. Six of the original 12 titles were revised by the master p'ansori writer Sin Chaehyo, of which five are still performed. How to thank TFD for its existence?
