Fundraising concert in Battersea, 31 July from 7pm

The Rotary Club of Battersea Park will be hosting an evening of Japanese and European music at St Mary’s Church, Church Road, Battersea SW11 3NA on Wednesday 31 July from 7pm.

This will be a fundraising concert for Shelter Box (www.shelterbox.org), which was particularly active at the time of the March 2011 earthquake and tsunami in Japan.

The entrance fee of  £15 includes wine and canapés.

Professor Kensuke Takayasu, who recently spoke on Japanese constitutional reform (http://www.dajf.org.uk/event/constitutional-reform) at the Daiwa Anglo-Japanese Foundation, was previously hosted by the Rotary Club of Battersea Park while in London on a two-year Rotary Scholarship.

He is now once again in London on a sabbatical, accompanied by his wife, Akane Otsuka, a professional flautist, who will be performing on 31 July along with Koh-ichiro Tanaka on the koto, and Akane Inoue and Eri Iwasa on the piano.

If the weather is good, wine and canapés will be served outside in St Mary’s Church Yard by the Thames.

A Shelter Box Tent will be on display.
