For my first post, I’d like to give you a general overview of Ulaanbaatar and my initial impressions [...]]]></description>

After months of language training, observational research, questionnaires, discussion groups, performance practice, writing workshops, and recording sessions, twenty-one children from SDKE Mangunan presented their own informal, fourteen-track album!
