Asia is home to a diverse array of musical styles and instruments, and this show features voices such as the Morin Khuur, the Gu Zheng, the Koto, and the Pipa, just to name a few. The playlist was selected carefully to highlight each of the instruments somewhat equally that are unique to Earth’s largest continent. We hope the musical education and journey and enjoyable for you!

One of our guests was Shelly Tyson who is a Korean-American English teacher currently living in South Korea and also a member of the “Korean Spirit and Culture Promotion Project“, KSCPP.
