"One of the most original outfits working in the world music arena today"
-- Tom Pryor, NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC WORLD MUSIC

Asia has yet to make much of a mark on the ever-growing world music scene. But if there is one group poised to change that, it is A MOVING SOUND (AMS). Drawing on the rich culture of Taiwan, a beautiful island off the coast of China where ancient Chinese traditions flourish as nowhere else -- including on the mainland -- the sound of AMS captures the way these ancient traditions jostle with the open, sophisticated, and avant-garde styles that have been welcomed in Taiwan in the two decades that have passed since the end of martial law. AMS has fashioned a exquisite, accessible and, yes, quite "moving" sound that speaks eloquently of its unique country of origin, while at the same time speaking in a universal language to listeners around the world.
