Niwa asks Taiwanese citizens to sing their national anthem to the rhythm of the national anthem of the People’s Republic of China “March of the Volunteers” performed by a band in Taiwan. By asking the singers to focus intently on how they perform, the work considers how the historic conflict between the countries can be transcended.
