The episode discusses how a Yale acappella choir connects with people in China through music despite language barriers.
What do you do when you don't speak the same language but still want to connect? For a group of students from Yale University, the answer was simple: you sing. This March, The Whiffenpoofs acappella choir set out on a tour across China.
