\nConcert Committee Chair
\nAs I mentioned in the JSS Online Newsletter, April 2016 issue, JSS has invited the famous husband and wife pianists, Mr. Kikuo Watanabe and Ms. Estuko Terada from Japan to perform a classical piano concert on September 24th, 2016 (Sat.) at Glenn Gould Studio starting at 7:00 p.m.
\n\"pianonlaug01\"Mr. Watanabe and Ms. Terada\u2019s warm understanding of JSS\u2019s contribution to the Japanese community in the GTA has persuaded them to kindly agree to perform a charity concert for JSS. I hope everybody will enjoy the famous pieces by the renowned composers played by Japan\u2019s premier artists.
\nAs I have already written their detailed biography in the previous issue, I will not repeat it here. Their most recent achievements were in May 2016. Ms. Terada held a piano concert to a full house at Kioi Hall in Tokyo.\u00a0 There she played several of Chopin\u2019s signature pieces along with pieces by Schubert and Hayden.\u00a0 At the end of May 2016, Nihon Philharmonic Orchestra (Nichi-Phil) celebrated it\u2019s 60 anniversary since its foundation, and the couple was invited to perform with the orchestra. There they played \u201cConcert for two pianos, in E Flat Major, K365\u201d by Mozart as well as other pieces.\u00a0 From the beginning of August, they are staying in Bayern province, Germany and besides holding concerts, they also teach a master class to cultivate talented pianists of the younger generation.\"pianonlaug02\"
\nThe concert on the September 24th at Glenn Gould Studio will be very unique due to the duo performance by husband and wife.\u00a0 Glenn Gould has a reputation throughout the world for its excellent acoustics.\u00a0 Having a capacity of 341, it is not regarded as a big concert hall, but because of its compact size, you will have an immersive experience of their performance as if they were playing the piano just in front of your eyes wherever you sit in the theatre.\u00a0 After the concert, the performers will come out to the lobby to chat with the audience and this will also be a very interesting experience.
\nTo purchase tickets, please go to jss.ca\/charity-piano-concert<\/a> and order online, or call the JSS office directly at 416-385-9200.\u00a0 The price per ticket is $50.00 including HST.
\nI am really looking forward to greeting you on September 24th at Glenn Gould Studio.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
