Evangelical Johanneskirche, Christel-Probst Str. 19, Ruhpolding on August 4, 2024, at 11 AM.
For the first time since the pandemic, Mika Enjo returned to Europe. After her successful concerts in Madrid and London, she performed a musical matinee with her friend and duo partner,
Nannette-Christine Goletzko (Piano), at the Evangelical Johanneskirche in Ruhpolding. Featuring well-known works by W.A. Mozart, G.F. Handel, and J.S. Bach, they took the audience on a musical journey.
Cries of "Bravo" and prolonged applause were also given for the performances of Japanese composers' works.
In short, it was a concert that will remain in the memories of those present for a long time.
We can only hope that Mika Enjo will make a stop in Ruhpolding again on her next European tour!
Dear Ms. Goletzko,
In Kyoto, the beautiful autumn is over and the thoughts are already approaching the Japanese New Year. But the memory of your concert together with
Mika Enjo on November 23rd will remain for a long time and will accompany everyone who could attend it. It was the second time that you and Mika have
participated in our annual Momiji festival. Your concert was a great "success" if that word is allowed. Your greeting of the listeners in Japanese
impressed the audience and many were pleased that you and Mika also performed some familiar pieces by Japanese composers for the Japanese listeners.
Your interpretation of Chopin's Prelude and Beethoven's Piano Sonata is not only unforgettable for me. So far you've put your light under the bushel.
You are not just a piano teacher, but a very gifted pianist. I would like to thank you again personally and on behalf of all listeners. I associate this
with the hope that we will see each other in Kyoto in the Kansai Seminar House next year again.
Yours Klaus Spennemann

Chamber Music Concert with Mika Enjo, transverse flute and Nannette Christine Goletzko, Piano with works by W.A. Mozart, Robert Schumann, Johann Sebastian
Bach and selected Japanese composers.
On June 2, 2018, a charity concert for the children's home Fujinosono in Ichinoseki took place in the gallery Falkenstern fine art in Kampen on Sylt. The performers were: Mika Enjo - flute, Nannette Christine Goletzko - piano. Since 2012, donations of these concerts have been used to finance food deliveries to this orphanage in Japan. The eighth grocery delivery is planned for December 2018.
After the concert on November 7th. was announced in the newspaper in Kyoto, it was sold out after a short time.
The audience was visibly enthusiastic about the artistic and harmonious interplay of the two musicians. Intensive applause and three encores ended this
beautiful concert.
The special atmosphere in HAKUSASONSO certainly contributed to the success.

The earnings went to Mr. Hashimoto Kansetsu, a small contribution to maintain this beautiful museum and the associated garden.

Meditation (Thais) by J.Massenet
On November 23, 2016, a highly regarded chamber concert took place in the Kansai Seminar House in Kyoto (Japan). Mika Enjo, transverse flute Nannette
Christine Goletzko, piano.
Dear Ms. Goletzko,
Please excuse me for thanking you so late for your concert. In the meantime, I have heard many reactions. All listeners were deeply affected. With your
encore, the Ave Maria von Bach, many have come to tears. Mika's flute playing and your accompaniment, which fitted so well together, have also
mesmerized the musical "lay people" among the listeners. In our Kansai Seminar House I have not experienced a concert that impressed the audience so
deeply. Personally, on behalf of all our employees and on behalf of all the listeners, I would like to thank you once again. It was indescribably
beautiful.
