Here are some tracks from our Spring 2015 concert at the Manhattan School of Music - our last one here! - dedicated to the Vocaloid music (among other things) composer sasakure.UK.

We pay homage to this genius musician by transcribing and arranging his music for our unique instrumentation, and by playing it with all of our heart, might, and soul.
