A Matter of Survival...
They are the descendants of tribes which lost in the fight for the fertile plains over a thousand years ago and quite a few of them might well be relatives of the Japanese of Chinese origin who went there with Xu Fu. When China first opened upin the seventies, many of the young fellows flocked from here to the coastal provinces for low paid jobs. Now most of them are back making the place a tourist attraction instead. Things are getting better for them, mainly through centuries of their own long -termed efforts !

Talented Musicians, some more famous than the others, most are forgotten, one way or the other:
Vasa Prihoda : Paganini: Nel cor piu 1949

Gaspar Cassadó, Liebestraum, Franz Lizst nº 3

Maurice Gendron : The Swan

János Starker A Tribute to Popper, Complete
www.youtube.com/watch?v=DUbNhFujSPA
( Starker's playing is friendly and unpretentious..)
But also full of surprises e.g. his Dvorak

Milstein : Lizst Consolation No. 3
www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ss72Do2wGl0&list=RDIUNmb_bXNS...
( Even though Milstein said Eugene Ysaye didn't pay any attention to him as a pupil, and that he learned almost nothing from him. Yet, other than Auer, Eugene Ysaye's influence was clear ... Many people even prefer his Bach to Heifetz )
