00:03.472 --> 00:06.588
- [Ericha] The levels are set, and it's time for two bands

00:06.588 --> 00:09.913
to come together and wow the city of Sombor.

00:09.913 --> 00:12.273
(band music)

00:12.273 --> 00:13.578
- [Rebecca] Through the language of music,

00:13.578 --> 00:17.578
which reaches the hearts and minds of everybody,

00:17.746 --> 00:21.413
it doesn't matter which culture you're from.

00:22.617 --> 00:26.200
It doesn't matter which language you speak.

00:26.986 --> 00:30.275
Everyone has a heart for music; both their own

00:30.275 --> 00:32.108
and for popular music.

00:35.895 --> 00:36.801
- [Kyle] In a country like Serbia,

00:36.801 --> 00:39.336
where there's a history of the 1990s, of conflict between

00:39.336 --> 00:43.503
the United States and Serbia, seeing out military band

00:44.133 --> 00:47.266
playing alongside a Serbian military band sends an

00:47.266 --> 00:51.064
incredibly powerful signal to the Serbian audiences,

00:51.064 --> 00:52.440
that, in fact, those times have passed

00:52.440 --> 00:54.746
and that we're moving forward.

00:54.746 --> 00:57.158
- It's just amazing. No matter where we go.

00:57.158 --> 00:59.944
We might speak three words of each other's language,

00:59.944 --> 01:03.331
but when we start sharing music together,

01:03.331 --> 01:05.571
it just brings your hearts together.

01:05.571 --> 01:07.979
It builds partnerships with people you may not have

01:07.979 --> 01:11.812
even thought about a week ago, or a month ago.
