Japan
As promised, we dedicated this week’s show to an Asian country, Japan. We tried to cover a wide range of musical genres from Japan. As usual, we started the show with a number of traditional songs and instrumental pieces in styles such as Kodo and Court music and ended the coverage of Japanese music with some modern fusion and J-Pop. As always, we explored the music of the friends of the show on MySpace.com in our Global Shuffle segment. Make sure to check out their pages…
