The Juilliard group is keeping a blog of their time here in Japan helping with relief work. You can read it here: http://jcftojapan.tumblr.com/

Concert at Koganehama Community Center, cleaned out by Grace City Relief to provide a place for people in the neighborhood to gather. This was the opening celebration, when we passed out coffee and cake. Restoring people's humanity one cup of coffee at a time...Strong winds of a typhoon caused the lights to go out in the shelter at Watanoha Elementary School. Abi held a flashlight so the musicians could see and one lady held a flashlight from above to serve as a spotlight. The sound of the wind outside during the concert was very spooky!
