Bengawan Solo▼
This is a famous song representing Indonesia, praising the Solo River that flows through the island of Java. It was written in 1940 by musician Gusan in the style of traditional music. The elegant melody, which sings of respect for the majestic nature, was passed down to postwar Japan through Japanese soldiers stationed there during the war, and has been covered by many singers, becoming a deeply loved song of peace that connects Asia.
