The following description comes from the event organizer.
The UW Taiwan Studies Arts & Culture Program welcomes you to celebrate Taiwan’s pop music through a roundtable discussion with Kay Huang, Ma Shih-Fang, and Chen Te-Cheng.For over a hundred years, Taiwan has been telling stories through songs that sweep across the Chinese-speaking world and touch the hearts of billions. Whether in authoritarian times or the open-minded values of today, musicians and their songs have transcended generations and space, breaking through geo-political borders and leaving vivid memories in everyone’s life. Everyone surely has a song of their own, whether narrating everyday life or expressing collective sentiments, and here at MUSIC, ISLAND, STORIES: TAIWAN CALLING, you will definitely find your own story.
