LEO (koto) & Walter Auer (flute) Duo Recital Unofficial

Walter Auer, a master flutist who has fascinated the world as a principal player of the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra, and LEO, a young prodigy who is opening up new possibilities for the koto, will perform together in Niigata. The flute breathes like a shakuhachi and the koto emits a sound reminiscent of a harp or piano, presenting a "double classic" world that is more than a mere blend of Japanese and Western music. The two pioneers, who have a deep understanding of each other's traditions and pursue innovative expression, will blend the boundaries of Japanese and Western music in a vivid way. We hope you will enjoy to your heart's content this kaleidoscope of unknown sounds that transcends borders and genres and can only be experienced here.
