As promised, here is a massive post with some images and the pieces from our “Goshiki Sanran” concerts. It was a wonderful experience, although most of my memories are of furiously practicing either in at my house in Japan or in the hotel in Korea. Please forgive a little bit of roughness in the performance.

Below are mp3s taken from both concerts, and the pictures are from our 3/23 concert in Kitakami.

I’ll post the final newspaper article from the Nichi-Nichi as a comment after I scan it this afternoon.
