Hakusan Sunset after ensemble NOMAD Rehearsal

Had a wonderful day today! Went to a rehearsal of the new music group ensemble NOMAD with Jo Kondo to hear some more of his pieces. They are recording a cd of 5 of his compositions later this week. Great music - great players, and Very FUN!

It has been one year since the terrible earthquake in Tohoku. Many gatherings were going on last weekend. It seemed like a good day to take a walk to Gokoku-ji, the large Buddhist temple in our neighborhood.

Kabuki

Sorry it's been a while since I last posted. Very busy time here in Tokyo. But not so busy that I'd miss a great performance. So yesterday it was Kabuki at the National Theatre of Japan and it was great!
