Make Life Beautiful Concert


For anyone who missed it the concert was incredible. The Taiko drummer was one of the most amazing things I have ever seen. Watching his face as he played, he had so much expression and emotion. It was as if he was using those drums to work through something, even though that is not true. It it years of training and studying an ancient Japanese Tradition that allows him to play as he does.
Yangjin Lamu a Tibetan singer, had the voice of an angel. Her story touching to say the least. She originally began her career beginning a major Pharmaceutical Company in Tibet, later selling it and donating all her money. Madi Sato a local Japanese-American sang songs from Ancient Japan, as well as mixing in a few of her more recents pieces. I hope them all the best in their future travels.
