The Ruritranoo String Quartet, active at the forefront of contemporary music, will deliver a special stage performance that blends Eastern and Western sounds, with biwa player Akiko Kubota in a string quartet formed for the performance. In addition to works by Naoyuki Manabe, Britten, and Berio, the quartet will perform the world premiere of a new work commissioned by Yu Kuwabara, inspired by the Kannon-sama (Goddess of Mercy) of Shiga. The classical Biwa piece "Kosui Norikiri" and the rich reverberations unique to the Noh stage will offer a moment of melting together of different cultures.
