Another Composer Coffee #6: Aya Yoshida
We are back! Finally, we are happy to invite you to the first real life Another Composer Coffee since March! A little late on the planning, the Japanese composer Aya Yoshida, is jumping on the train with us, and we hope to share a beautiful evening together with you! This time we will start the event a little later than usual, at 19.30, and due to the later hour we might offer you a calming cup of tea or perhaps a little glass of something else? As normal we warmly welcome you to Koncertkirkens Crypt to cozy in with us!
This event is FOR FREE and everyone is welcome. However, due to Covid-19, we intend to keep social distance and be intimate with each other in other ways. There will always be a cup of something for you to drink, and sometimes a cookie too.
