comments

-Yukie Kawanami is a force to be recon with. She lights up the stage and makes her audience want more. Her passion for music the type of passion that only few musicians have in this generation. Ms. Kawanami has been gifted to have the natural musical sense and abilities. The sense of her ears can immediately catch the core of the music, and she is able to interpret it without losing its meanings.
