Suginiko Wind Band - Dec 2004

The Suginiko Wind Band - 16 members of the larger concert band had a truly Australian experience when they visited Busselton in December 2006. While enjoying a BBQ at Meelup beach they saw whales frolicking in the Bay, visited the Underwater Observatory and joined the Busselton Brass Band to play at the Carols by Candelight. The women certainly made a spectacular sight on stage in their kimonos. Busselton Brass Band, 2003 Busselton brass band & Suginiko wind band concert.
