Yokohama Minato Mirai Hall, Small HallKanagawa

Yuri Umemoto, composer-in-residence at Yokohama Minatomirai Hall, will present a new commissioned work on the theme of "chorus", which is his roots. By rethinking the voice as a "material" and combining traditional musical notation with meticulous digital editing, Umemoto will present an ambitious work that reexamines the nature of the "voice" in the modern age. Under the direction of Kenji Otani, a leading figure in the world of choral music, the NHK Tokyo Children's Chorus will present an unprecedented image of choral music, resonating with the clean voices of Munefumi Hara's cello and Shintaro Imai's electronics. Works by Ben Nobuto and other up-and-coming composers from around the world will also be introduced, offering a rare opportunity to experience the forefront of contemporary music.
