Rain and Romance

The sun, the moon, the wind, rain and earth: the elemental forces of nature surround us. We can’t live without nature, but being so close to it, we forget its constant presence, and fail to respect it. Now, we are more than ever aware of our impact on our climate and the world’s precious resources. Reiko Fujisawa and friends perform repertoire that focuses on both tangible and spiritual aspects of nature. With introductions and insights from Peter Quantrill.
