Cycles of work, event, and eat/sleep

Updated: April 13, 2009

It's been a great year going to events, meeting you and making new friends. But our careers are keeping us busy and we won't be able to keep up with the demands to keep up with the event alerts. We will post our reviews when we have a chance from time to time.

Please see right panel for sites we check for unique and fun events from less well-known organizations. See you there -- and don't forget to say hi

Love, peace and music, Jade & CHRIS - )

Sachiko Kato-Pianist in Concert (February 13, 2008)

Organizer: The Consulate General of Japan & Canada Japan Society
Cost: Free!
Pre-event estimate: unable to assess-first time to a concert hosted by the organizers
Post event rating: 3 out of 5

I can’t say contemporary music is the genre of choice. The atonal arrangement challenged my classically trained ears. I did find “Little Crystal Romance” and “Lullaby in the Celestial Night” (by Takashi Yoshimatsu) as charming as “Pictures at an Exhibition” (by Mussorgsky). Overall, it was an enlightening exposure to some well-known Japense composers of this era—This is one of the reasons for attending cultural events in Toronto. The yummy sashimi and sake at the end was a surprise bonus!
