Anka Minami, the "Singing Pianist," returns home completely after 5 years of training in the United States.
She has been going through trials and tribulations, and delivers her boiling thoughts and deepest prayers.
A journey of endless pursuit of music, the first step.

<Message from Anka Minami
I returned to Japan this spring after five years of study in Boston. This will be my first recital after returning to Japan.
This time, I will perform mainly works that I studied in the United States. The first half will feature works by Corigliano and "The Firebird," which are rarely performed. The second half will be Chopin's complete Préludes.
This is a profound program that will make the summer heat even more conducive. Where is the limit of my physical strength?
We look forward to seeing you at the concert!
