The members of the Waterloo Region Japanese Canadian Community Association (WRJCCA) welcome you to join them at this special event, designed to bring people in the K-W area together to show support and solidarity for the victims of the recent earthquake and tsunami disasters in Japan. 100% of the proceeds from the ticket sales will be donated to the Canadian Red Cross Society whose strong presence on Japanese soil has continued to inspire hope to those who have been affected by the tragedy.

This concert, performed predominantly by Japanese musicians, is a unique blend of the East and the West. The music of Ten Ten may be described as 'Japanese folk tradition with a twist', and the Seraphine Piano Trio will perform two great classical works by two of the most beloved European composers of the Japanese people, Mozart and Mendelssohn.
