Symphony Spotlight

Happy Easter and Good Friday!  We are excited to welcome back Tanner Porter this upcoming concert, share more articles about next season and feature one of the symphony's cellists, Hikaru Tamaki!

Hikaru Tamaki and Bunraku:
Japanese Puppet Theatre

Featured is one of our cellists, Hikaru Tamaki, performing an excerpt of Bunraku by Toshiro Mayuzumi. In addition to this beautiful performance, Hikaruwas kind enough to enlighten us all to the world of Bunraku, a form of Japanese puppetry. Bunraku is a beautiful, intricate art form. Linked below is a documentary on Bunraku and Hikaru's full performance, it is super interesting and definitely worth the watch!
