Her voice carried the weight of a promise made decades ago -- to honor the legacy of Chinese composer Xian Xinghai, whom her family had embraced as their own.
Baikadamova recalled Xian's deepest wish -- to someday carry these Kazakh-inspired compositions, each note brimming with gratitude for the people who sheltered him, back to China.
