“We ended up going on tour with that show, which included a full 60-piece orchestra,” Ino continued. “At the various shows produced by TCG, I am fortunate enough to play a wide variety of music. Cirque Musica is definitely a different experience as it is mostly an arena. It’s not like playing with a show.”
