Discover traditional Japanese music by acclaimed koto and shamisen player Yoko Reikano Kimura, whose wide-ranging repertoire features classical music and improvisational pieces.<\/p>\n<p>After many centuries, the brilliance of traditional Japanese music is still being passed on to the present day. Experience the sounds of koto and shamisen and enjoy the taste of the four seasons here in New York. This concert series features each season\u2019s representative traditional works chosen by Kimura.<\/p>\n<p>Concert Program<\/p>\n<p>Miyako no Haru (\u201cSpringtime in Kyoto\u201d) composed by Shoin Yamase \u2162 (shamisen)<br \/>\nKagerou no Odori (\u201cMirage Dance\u201d) composed by Kin\u2019ichi Nakanoshima (koto)<br \/>\nSakura-gari (Cherry Blossom Viewing) composed by Yamada-kengyo (koto)<\/p>\n<p>Each season is expressed through ingredients. Spring traditionally begins with sakura (cherry blossoms), broccoli rabe, strawberries and raspberries, followed by elderflower, rose, edamame, and sansho (Japanese pepper) in summer. Autumn approaches with chrysanthemum, apples, grapes, chestnuts and hazelnuts, and yuzu and kumquats in winter. Even within one season, the taste and the form change gradually from hashiri (first harvest or catch of the season) through nagori (the final traces).<\/p>\n<p>The colorful and delicate Japanese style confectionaries served by mochi Rin will be sweets for the spring, most celebrated for the brief appearance of beautiful cherry blossoms. mochi Rin creates bite-sized mochi desserts made by infusing New York\u2019s locally sourced ingredients into Japan\u2019s popular organic bean paste. Their new type of mochi mixes seasonal fruits and flowers from New York into Japanese traditional desserts such as daifuku and sakura-mochi.<\/p>\n<p>Seating is limited, so purchase your tickets in advance at CRS\u2019s website: <a href=\"http:\/\/crsny.org\/wp\/\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/crsny.org<\/a><br \/>\nor by phone 212-677-8621, or in person at CRS.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Saturday, April 23 04pm to 05:30pm CRS (Center for Remembering and Sharing) 123 4th Avenue (bet. 12th and 13th Streets, New York, NY<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":29,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-63070","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-stay-connected-to-the-latest-local-events"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/63070","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/29"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=63070"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/63070\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":63072,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/63070\/revisions\/63072"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=63070"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=63070"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=63070"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
