I agree with you about the music implementation to the cultural study. Music takes you to the different time and space. Many of our students are not exposed to different varieties of music. If teachers are the only ones that can introduce it to them, then we really will be doing a great favor to them.
By the way, thank you for mentioning Yo Yo Ma's "Silk Road." The concert at the Hollywood Bowl was fantastic. The sound of forign instruments (bongos and strings) and the group who played with him just blew me away. S.P
