DESCRIPTION:Hosted by Lucky Cat G.\nMusicians: Zachary Mowitz\, Mike Kaufma
 n\, Yoshika Masuda\, Stella Cho\, and Peter Myers\n\nCome one\, come all a
 s we welcome **SAKURA** to the heart of Downtown for a Massivemuse at Luck
 y Cat Labs.\n\nA Massivemuse is just like a regular groupmuse except at a 
 larger scale and in a non-traditional space that isn't a private home. BYO
 B and get ready to be blown away!\n\nA bit about **SAKURA:**\n\nA unique a
 nd versatile cello quintet\, hailed as “brilliant” and “superb” by
  Mark Swed in the Los Angeles Times\, the SAKURA Cello Quintet is built on
  the artistry and virtuosity of its members: Stella Cho\, Michael Kaufman\
 , Yoshika Masuda\, Zachary Mowitz and Peter Myers. Drawing from the rich h
 eritage of a repertoire that spans eight centuries\, inventive programs ar
 e constructed around conceptual threads\, with a commitment to opening new
  vistas of beauty and expression by showcasing the great warmth and scope 
 of five cellos.\n\nSAKURA explores great music of the past through dazzlin
 g arrangements that offer fresh perspectives on familiar notes\, and conti
 nually expands the five-cello repertoire into the future by commissioning 
 new works. In the tradition of the great chamber ensembles\, the quintet d
 istills its interpretations through time\, reveling in the pure sonic plea
 sure of a unified and colorful sound. Its name honors the great mentor and
  artist Ralph Kirshbaum\, with whom all five members studied: sakura (桜)
  (Japanese) and Kirschbaum (German) have the same meaning: “cherry tree
 ”\, an organism whose flowers have five petals.
