Review of Dapo Sings on Waikiki

I loved this piece. The rhythms and cadences of the Naxi mountain song are absolutely hypnotic. Yes, there is no explanation and no narration, but I liked that. So often pieces are overexplained. This would be an easy choice for programming concerning cultural preservation.
