Songs performed by the 12 Indigenous Children’s Choir members from the Biho Elementary School, Nan’ao, Taiwan
Introduction by Dr. Huiyu Lin, University of Washington Tacoma, Taiwan Studies, University of Washington
Prof. Lin will begin with a brief introduction on efforts to reclaim and revitalize Indigenous languages. She will share how language connects to Indigenous cultures, knowledge, and daily life, offering context for the traditions and stories carried in the music. The program will feature seven traditional songs in the Atayal language, highlighting the rich cultural heritage of the Atayal people. Following the performance, there will be a reception and poster session in the Chapel’s basement lounge, where students from the Puget Sound Chinese 101 class will present their projects and have the opportunity to engage with the visiting choir members.
