Visited Vandoren LA Studio with my California State University, Dominguez Hills Saxophone students! Thank you Vandoren Musician's Advisory Studio L.A. and Vandoren USA !

One of my social media feeds reminded me that I have graduated from University of Southern California with a Doctor in Musical Arts (DMA) degree 8 years ago (2014-05-16). It was tough but extremely fulfilling three years that I spent at USC.

There is an extremely important effect on having a good posture, aesthetically, physiologically and psychologically.

This year marks the 290th birth year of Haydn and pianist Mikiko Yamaguchi and I have been working on some arrangements for this special year. Here is the footage from Tokyo’s concert.

We are super excited that we will also be doing an Afternoon Concert with Mikiko in Atsugi, Kanagawa, approx. 1 hour west of Tokyo!

I am doing a concert with pianist Mikiko Yamaguchi in Tokyo, Shibuya on Saturday, 3/19 at 18:00 & 19:00.

US premiere live recording of Louis Andriessen’s The only one feat. Nora Fischer, conducted by Esa-Pekka Salonen.

I was grateful that I got to catch his concert this past weekend in a beautiful century-old machiya, a traditional wooden townhouse, in Kyoto

“KIMONO” literally means “Wearing Thing” (Ki - 着 Mono- 物) . It is a a traditional Japanese garment and the national dress of Japan…

For this concert Mikiko and I had performed with our original sax and piano instruments but we also explored the possibility of presenting classical music on an electronic wind instrument and the Roland's digital piano (LX708)…

This year, 2021 marks the 290th birth year of Franz Joseph Haydn (1732-1809), the Father of Symphony or the Father of String Quartet, and we were super thrilled to have arranged his Violin Sonatas to the saxophone and piano…

Wishing you and your loved ones good health, prosperity, and happiness! Greetings from Kyoto, Japan!
