MONGOLIAN MUSIC (6/11/1981)

In 1980, Studs Terkel spent about 3 weeks in the Peoples Republic of China as the guest of the Chinese Writers Association because some portraits from Working had appeared in a Chinese literary magazine. During that time, he traveled some fifteen hours by train from Beijing to the capital of Inner Mongolia, Hohhot. Of course he brought along his tape recorder, and the program tonight features music and musicians from three different areas of that region. Studs first presented this program on WFMT in 1981.
