Hope you’ll be able to join us for our next KDFC at Yoshi’s SF concert. This time we welcome pianist Jon Nakamatsu to the casual nightclub setting of Yoshi’s. A native of the Peninsula, Jon won the 1997 Van Cliburn Competition and since then has become one of today’s most sought-after performers. When he was here for a KDFC Casual Concert, we had a great time and discovered that he is not only incredibly talented as a musician but super articulate, funny, and approachable. All those things will be on offer Monday, May 3rd at 8pm. Get your tickets here and check out Jon’s website there.

Seeing and hearing him at Yoshis was an unforgetable musical experience. Jon spoke several times to the audience and one of his comments was that at another concert people asked him where he had been performing and where he was going. He replied that he had been to famous concert halls around the world and he was going to play at Yoshi’s…YOSHIS! they cried…so this must be an envyable venue.
