Music connects us — not just across decades, but through centuries and cultures. In her beautiful TED performance, Yijia Tu moves from grand stages to an intimate family lullaby, reminding us that preserving tradition isn’t about worshiping ashes — it’s about keeping the fire alive.

By blending East Asian folk traditions with modern sounds, she shows how honoring our roots fuels creativity and meaning in the present.
