Japanese Music and Sushi in Szafarnia
Last Sunday, our guests could listen to the music played by contemporary Japanese composers. Most of them had never listened to the music of the Far East before. The musicians not only performed the pieces but also talked about the music, its specificity and notation. After the concert, there was a special attraction for the guests – Sushi tasting – prepared by a restaurant chain DOM SUSHI (Sushi House). The idea was accepted with enthusiasm by the guests. The manager of Sushi House, Kamil Augustynowicz, answered all the questions concerning the dish.
We hope you enjoyed this Sunday afternoon in Szafarnia. Some of the pictures can be seen here – thanks to Maciej Nadolski. You can see more photos in our gallery under Concerts and also here Polskiej Agencji Prasowej Terytorium.
