Following the devastating impact of the March 2011 earthquake and tsunami in Japan, pianist Panos Karan performed for communities in Northeast Japan.
Karan began his visit to Tohoku on 25 August 2011 playing 11 recitals in 8 days for people still living in emergency shelters, schools and temporary housing in the prefectures of Fukushima and Miyage.
Tariq Zaidi, travel photographer, documented this amazing and emotional journey through the images in this book.
