Kishio Hirao's "String Quartet" was awarded the first Chamber Music Prize of the Japan Federation of Composers in 1940, but the score was scattered due to war damage and became a "phantom. This rare concert commemorates the publication and CD release of the score, which was meticulously restored over a period of two years based on a historical recording from 1941 that was miraculously discovered in Germany in recent years. The concert brings together some of Japan's leading virtuosos, including Megumi Shimane, Yoshiteru Yamamoto, Shotaro Nakamura, and Tomofumi Shimane. Together with works by Vincent d'Indy, under whom Hirao studied in Paris, they will present supreme sounds that transcend time and have been revived in the modern age. Please enjoy the moment of historical restoration and its deep emotion in the excellent sound of Lutheran Ichigaya Hall.
