Moranbong Band - Sound of horse hooves in Mt Paektu (백두의 말발굽소리)

모란봉악단 - 백두의 말발굽소리 Music: Ri Jong-o (리종오) 1992 Recorded: Mokran Video DPRK The horse hooves in this song belongs to Chollima (천리마), the horse of a thousand ri (appr. 400-500 km). This very powerful horse is known from mythology in the whole region, Japan included, and plays an important inspirational role in modern north Korea. Chollima combined with the stratovolcano Paektusan is about as powerful as it can get... Notice how all musicians in the most democratic manner get one short solo each.
