Paul Kling (1929-2005) was a gifted Czech born Jewish violinist who managed to survive internment at two Nazi concentration camps in adolescence. After the war he became a concert master at the NKO Symphony in Tokyo. There he met and married his wife, Japanese harpist, Taka Kling. From Tokyo the Klings moved to Louisville, playing with the Louisville Orchestra before settling in Victoria, British Columbia. The Ackermanns and Klings maintained a close lifelong friendship. This photograph was likely taken by Paul Kling on a trip the two couples took together.
