The journey begins in China, where Toni Wang of A Little Mandarin shares a traditional Chinese folk song of he childhood sung in the Mandarin language that offers an unusual suggestion of what to do with a penny found on the ground. It’s followed by The Shanghai Restoration Project, who like to take traditional Chinese music and give it a modern sound by adding electronica, pop, hip hop and other modern styles. Next we travel to The Philippines with Bayang Barrios who combines music made with traditional instruments and native languages with reggae and other modern influences. Her song “Naghahari” offers the positive message that everyone has the power to make changes in their lives. The band, Marsada, from Samosir, an island in Indonesia, shares a song from their ethnic group, Toba-Batak, which is known for their musical talents .
