Music events:

- Went to see Seiji, a French chanson singer whose recent debut mini-album was produced by Takanami K-taro. K-taro was there to MC the event (and also sing chorus during the encore!), and the guest DJ was Konishi Yasuharu! (Like if this wasn't enough, I can't resist to say that Maki was in the audience! Talk about a reunion. :))
Also Kaji Hideki and Koshi Miharu had guest spots in the show.

1st set: La vie en rose / kuchibiru ni uta o / Que reste-t-il de nos amours / Speak Low / Je te veux (w/ Koshi Miharu) / Parlez-moi d'amour (w/ Koshi Miharu) / minatomachi / Nana no uta / Life is a cabaret
2nd set: Paris Wellington / Le tour du monde / Les feuilles mortes / C'est si bon (w/ Kaji Hideki) / La javanaise (w/ Kaji Hideki) / La java bleue / Bon voyage / Quand on n'a que l'amour
Encore: kuchibiru ni uta o (w/ Takanami K-taro)

- And, I went to see a classical concert of the "ongaku no ehon" series, featuring Zoorasian Brass, string quartet tsuru-usagi and the pipe organist owl. Musicians with beautiful animal masks perform well-known pieces, with added bits of humor to keep the kids entertained. It's impressive to see them play brass instruments despite the large masks!
