Jazz in the Park

Press your tux, dust off your jewels. It’s a black tie evening.
Sunday May 22, 2005
6:00 pm – 7:00 pm (dinner to follow)
Kyu-Furukawa Garden, Kita-ku (Map & info: English – Japanese
This is a free jazz concert featuring vocalist Miyuki Komatsu held at one of Tokyo’s most beautiful parks.
Let’s dress up and make it a special event (and a spectacle for the other people attending). Dinner is optional afterwards–I’m thinking of Isou Ryouri Kaneko, a fish restaurant in Komagome. If you’d like to eat with the party, please e-mail me before the 17th so I can reserve sufficient tables.
Why dress up for a concert and dinner? A while back, my friends and I were distressed that we have lovely frocks that we rarely use. Well, that’s easily corrected. Jazz in the Park launches series of formal dress events, though the events themselves may not always be formal. Anyone is welcome to attend, just put on your best ballgown, cocktail dress, tuxedo, dinner jacket, or suit.
Coming soon: Dress-up Dim Sum, Ballgowns at the Ball Park, and Fireworks in Frocks.
