Sakura-Cherry blossoms
Yesterday I finished composing a short piano piece
"Sakura-Cherry blossoms"for the concert on April 26th.
It's so beautiful.
You can listen the music now! It is my portal site music for a while.
The piece was uploaded to YouTube:

About the piece "Sakura-Cherry blossoms":
I had lived in Japan until April 2002 before I came to the USA.
As a Japanese who loves cherry blossoms, when spring is coming, my mind becomes more sensitive than any other seasons.
I expect and enjoy seeing cherry blossoms and look for flowers wherever I am.
Want to see more and more flowers before they dissipate into the ground as if cherry-colored droplets stained the ground into fragile pink and passed the torch to green leaves on branches and twigs.
"Sakura-Cherry blossoms". They just bring sweet memories.

After the performance on 12th, got a spring break till mid April.
I am going to perform "Mirror by Ravel" in April, but I have a break
till then. Great!!!!
I would like to jot down my favorite bread recipe today.
It is very easy to make. Don't need to use yeast, butter and egg.
The essential ingredients are flour, baking soda, soy milk and vineger.
I can even bake this bread in the morning when I have a performance on the day.

2 cups flour
2 Tbsp sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/3 cup raisins
1/3 cup nuts
2/3 cup soy milk

Sift together flour, the sugar, raisins, nuts and baking soda into

Atsu Hime/Japanese sacred music @ Music for Asian and Black composers concert

About the piece "Atsu Hime":
Atsu Hime helped bring peace to Japan at the end of Edo era. She also helped Tokugawa Clan survive through Meiji Restoration. This piano piece was for the first time performed at the concert "Music of Asian and Black Composers" on February 21, 2009.
(Excerpt from DoramaWiki)
Atsu-hime who was born in Kagoshima Prefecture 1836, then called Satsuma, and became the wife of Tokugawa Iesada, the 13th shogun of the Tokugawa shogunate. She accedes to the highest rank in Ooku, the inner palace of the Edo castle where women related to the reigning shogun resided. Iesada dies soon after their marriage and Atsuhime assumes the name Tenshoin at the age of 23. She exerts herself for the Tokugawa clan and for the nation during the upheaval in the Meiji Restoration.
