Students from the Pasadena Waldorf School in Altadena have been invited to participate in a benefit concert for victims of the Japanese tsunami.
According to a press release from the school, students have been invited to participate as singers and instrumentalists to play "Sakura," a traditional Japanese folk song, at the event, to be held at Occidental college on Sunday, March 10.
Hiromi Koyanagi, the Japanese teacher at Pasadena Waldorf School, and Dr. Yuri Inoo, the school's wind instrument teacher, have been collaborating to teach the song to the participating children as a tribute to those children still suffering from the disaster.
The event, organized by Dr. Yuri Inoo in association with Hiromi Koyanagi and the Occidental College Music Department, will take place at 2 PM on Sunday, March 10, at Bird Studio, Occidental College (1600 Campus Rd., Los Angeles CA 90041).
