Hai Mu Dan, the performance group composed of dancer Kim Rihye, percussionist and vocalist Kim Dong-Won, and shakuhachiist Jeff Cairns, played to a standing–room only crowd at B-Plesu tonight. It was the first time I’d seen them, and the beauty of the music and dance, the blending of Korean and Japanese cultures, the shear brilliance left me in tears.
Again, they’ll be performing again Sunday night in the square behind Swiss on Kamitori. I strongly recommend viewing their performance. You’ll likely leave in tears as well, or breathless. - William
