Singular Sensation !

I am pleased to share the poster I created for the musical “The Chorus Line” I performed in April 2025. The production was a resounding success, thanks to the exceptional efforts of our dedicated team of Lost Baggage Theatre and Wood Brass Parley Concert Ensemble. The performance was energetic, contributing to the overall brilliance ! I feel honoured to be part of such an excellent company.

Rock and Funk !

 I’m so excited to share that we’ve been working hard for our band’s special event this Autumn. I’m really proud of what they’ve come up with, and I can’t wait to see everyone there! It’s going to be a blast, so mark your calendars and let’s make this a night to remember!

TOMONI GO TOGETHER 2024!

On Saturday November 16, I had an amazing time at TOMONI GO TOGETHER, the unique performance event for Japanese cultural artists collaborating with non-Japanese artists. I participated as a clarinet player of Ottawa Woodwind Project. My band collaborated with Japanese dancers Minyo-kai and the opener of the show ! I enjoyed taking some snap shots after my performance. I had an honour of participating this special event in many ways. Thanks you OJCA OJCC !

Pray for Japan

On March 11, Japan commemorates 10th year after the devastation by massive earthquake and tsunami in Tohoku region. We pray for Japan and all people who continue to strive for recovery, including my sister and her family in Iwaki, Fukushima.

Here in Canada, March 11 is now designated for National day of remembrance for COVID-19 victims. Prayer for whole world, hope for the future, and strength to go through together.
