I will add some other thoughts to this topic: Some years ago, we had a concert with a piece for Daegǔm, Recorder, Harpsichord and Changgu. The recorder player suddenly said during a rehearsal: I feel a little bit stupid with my recorder, compared to the Daegǔm...Of course a recorder is another "historic" instrument but still much more modernized than Daegǔm. And of course another type of flute. The sound quality of a single tone of a Daegǔm is indeed really astonishing different - so rich - like the beauty of the nature. I thought the same thing as the recorder player and it was funny and honest that she expressed her feelings.
