● watch AMS interview on Discovery CH, Huffington and Link TV
AMS co-founders Mia Hsieh and Scott Prairie are featured on the respected internet newspaper The Huffington Post as well as on LINK TV, in Link music director, Michal Shapiro’s insightful article and video blog. Michal shot the video during her recent musical fact finding mission in Taiwan. She describes A Moving Sound as one of the pioneers of new music coming from Taiwan.
In the video Mia describes her passion for using “the old elements, the old wisdom and the old instruments to create something that can dialog with modern people”. Please share your comments on the HP page and support Michal’s wonderful piece presenting an open heart and minded look at Taiwan music.
Michal’s sentiments for the originality of A Moving Sound were echoed by Marco Werman, BBC Public Radio International who reports that AMS is "one of the few groups offering truly creative music from Asia". You can hear his WOMEX (Sevilla, Spain) interview of Mia and Scott.
Another exciting media news is that the global internet television service Babelgum has recently put online an entire program created by Lonely Planet for The Discovery Channel which prominently features A Moving Sound. This show, which is part of Lonely Planet’s Travel series entitled “Six Degrees” has a wonderful feature on Mia offering a voice workshop (at 8:45) as well as exciting concert and backstage footage with all of A Moving Sound (26:00) at the beautiful “Red Theater”.
