The Asian-North American experience is explored in a collection of stories, each told with a delectable treat evoking the favorite childhood memory of our composers. Wadaiko Japanese Drums sound a transition for us through the journey, which includes works from Indian, Vietnamese, Chinese, Cambodian and Japanese composers.

MAKE AN EVENING OF IT WITH OUR PRE-CONCERT EVENT!
