Voyage to East Asia and beyond through folk songs, dance, and storytelling.

Take an “unhurried journey” around the globe through song! Elena Moon Park and Friends performs folk and children’s music from East and Southeast Asia, reimagined to celebrate various musical traditions, languages, styles, and stories. The tunes include northern Japanese sea shanties, Tibetan jump rope rhymes, joyous Korean harvest sing-alongs, Taiwanese train songs, energetic original songs, and much more. The artists encourage audiences of all ages to dance and sing along in many different languages—and join in this shared performance.
