The Opening Live of this year’s WMDF is on Thu 6th & Fri 7th June:

Performers:

• Kumonosu Quartet
• Zahatorte
• Hinokiya

Kumonosu Quartet have appeared once at WMDF 002, and we have since been told by many people that they wanted to see more. Here is an example of their work on Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ePbvrqajty4

The above video will show you where the “Cat” theme of the OLT comes from…. More info on Kumonosu at their HP: http://www.kumokaru.net/

Next, we called on Zahatorte, who appeared att WMDF 004 & 005, where many people compared them to Kumonosu Quartet. Take a look at their performance of “Merry Go Round” on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vDcvXjC7Igo

Zahatorte intersperse their numbers with comedy and magic corners, and appear to be performing with far more than 3 people on stage. Check out their site:  http://www.zahatorte.com/

Hinokiya are our regulars, and WMDF implementers. You can see their digest on YouTube:
