International Concert pianist, Michi Hirata North, takes the stage assisted by conductor Julia Tai and Philharmonia Northwest to perform the renown Chopin Concerto No. 1 in E minor and Tchaikovsky Concerto No. 1 in B flat minor. Ms. North was a piano prodigy at a young age. At age 8, she wowed Japan during her 1939 debut at the Shin Philharmonic Orchestra (currently NHK). She is a beloved and respected teacher with students from around the world.
The concert will benefit the Japanese Cultural and Community Center of Washington. The JCCCW is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to the sharing of Japanese culture, language and heritage in the state of Washington. Housed in the historical, century old Seattle Japanese Language School at Rainier Ave. South and South Weller Street, the beautifully remodeled center hosts classes in Japanese language, taiko, martial arts and crafts as well as free public events (Children's Day, Culture Day). There is also a Japanese language library and garden and a charming resale gift shop.
