Three years ago, while packing to move to NYC, YiuYiu stumbled upon three boxes of vinyl records hidden in her family home. Over the past few months, she has been working with folks in Chinatown to dig up and digitize their family collections of records and tapes. From Cantonese opera to Taiwanese pop, these melodies orchestrate the soundtrack to our memories of home and family. Now, these records and the stories they hold fill her own home in Chinatown. In this special listening hour, YiuYiu pays homage not only to her own parents, but also to the families who have held onto these musical memories of home for decades.

YiuYiu says: Special thanks to Dad, Vic Huey, Amy Chin, Ping & Betty Chong for trusting me to listen and sway to these melodies with as much love as you all did with your families.
