# Tokyo - Casa Mozart

We are back in New Zealand, returning from our Japan Concert Tour!

The tour consisted of a total of six concerts including a very special performance at Yamada Machi in the Tohoku Region which experienced severe damage from the 2011 Japan Earthquake and Tsunami.

We arrived in Tokyo on the 16th of April in the evening, then went straight to our Hotel in Kanda to rest for our 1st concert which was on the next day! (Actually had a little night walk at Akihabara to buy some food :P )

The next morning we spent most of our time during the day just relaxing, then we both headed to the concert venue at around 5:30pm, met the concert organizers and had a little warm up practice with their Bechstein piano. The concert was full house with some late arrives sitting on the side of the stage area.

There were few familiar faces who were in Japan for a holiday at the time plus many new faces who came to our concert for the first time. We were also privilege to have both composers - Xu Tang from New Zealand and Komori Toshiaki from Japan in attendance, hearing us perform their work! On top of that - Japanese Youtuber Mr Ogawa (who i am a huge fan of!) also came to hear our concert!

We would like to thank Mr.Nakamura, Mr.Hayashi and Mrs.Sarada for hosting us in the beautiful Casa Mozart, organizing the concert, and also talking to us about future performances in Tokyo!

Would definitely love to perform here again in the near future!
