Brise japonaise is a music concert made up of a beautiful mix of traditional, contemporary and folk music with two accomplished musicians, Yuki Isami on flute, and Natsuki Hiratsuka on piano.

Brise japonaise, interpreted by Yuki Isami and Natsuki Hiratsuka, is a recital that is an expression of the blending of Asian heritage and a continuous discovery of Quebec culture, echoing the shock and, above all, the harmony between the past and the present.

The artists will  perform contemporary pieces followed by arrangements of traditional Asian pieces.
