今回は戸田先生のピアノソロ2曲、バリトン歌手のSaidさんによるソロ3曲、そして最後、コーラス桜より日本の歌5曲を演奏しました。戸田先生も和装、メンバーも浴衣着用で、コンサートテーマ通り「和」を意識した雰囲気の中、とても充実した内容の約1時間のコンサートでした。
Last Sunday, Chorus Group Sakura joined Mr. Toda’s fundraising piano solo concert. The concert was held at First Unitarian Universalist Church, which has a beautiful chapel that offered the perfect sound for our performance.
It’s a great pleasure to hear complement from many friends and families toward our performance. It really means a lot to us. We hope that our performance inspired the audience to enjoy beautiful Japanese songs and to share the thoughts for people who are getting through the earthquake-tsunami disaster through the song “Hana-wa-saku(Flowers will bloom)”which was produced to build public support for their recovery effort.
