Karate has no borders, it is shared with the same spirit throughout the world. I feel that music is the same. Music has no borders, it shares the same spirit. If we could all have the same spirit and feeling of mutual happiness and joy from each other the world would be a better place.
Please enjoy Celtic musicv played by a group of lovely Chinese ladies with traditional Chinese musical instruments. Yes, I admit, my eyes focused first before my ears! (^^)

Ahhh Roushiiichi drinking Chi tea, rapped in Jen's native american blanket listening to traditional Japanese and Chinese instruments played in a modern era, suggested by my Hawaii friend with an ear for music. I would love to see both of these groups. I really enjoy the music of the Chinese woman, to me it was much like the energy I feel from the Trans-Sierian Orchestra Carol of the Bells....ummm Maybe I am getting there
