As the frenzy of the Olympic Games subsides and China's economic boom marches on, we have focussed on the ancestral aspects of a great civilization, the daily-life of its people, their traditions and their culture. Imade Saputra has come back with magnificent recordings made across the length and breadth of this great country still so foreign to us and from which we have so much to learn.
