Brazilian notes in Koriyama

This evening we had the great opportunity to attend a concert performed by local citizens, here amongst our good friend Keiko-san whom is an accomplished piano player. Together with a saxophone player, she filled the room with Brazilian inspired music. She played absolutely fantastic and we are very proud to know her.

Koriyama is a very musical city, as you will notice when you walk down our main street.
Here and there you find benches inviting you to take a break. All the benches are artfully shaped into music notes and the likes. The reason for this is that the musical students in Koriyama, many years in a row, have won some national competition in music!
