691 exhibition

Interesting old folk music played in one of the large exhibition rooms at 691 this afternoon. There was also a mix of unusual art and video animations to look at which makes the 691 project an interesting place to visit. 

The two man band pictured above sang folk songs inspired by the life and literary works of Zhong Lihe (1915-1960) a renowned Hakka writer from Southern Taiwan. The music was composed by Lin Sheng Xiang.

Below a few of the songs they played:
