The concert will present a special moment when Japanese instruments that convey the breath of Japan and the piano, which plays free melodies, fuse together. Performed by Ryozan Sakata, one of Japan's foremost shakuhachi players, who continues to expand the possibilities of the instrument. Miko Sakata is a one-of-a-kind performer known for her emotionally rich biwa tone and storytelling that vividly reflects the story. Pianist Yogo Shindo adds a modern touch to the sounds of Japanese instruments with his creative rhythms and lyrical melodies. The three musicians, active at the forefront of the music world, transcend traditional boundaries with ease, and their interweaving of gems is a must-hear performance. We hope you will enjoy this crossover concert of the highest caliber, featuring the timeless narration of the biwa, the dignified resonance of the shakuhachi, and the melody of the piano that envelops them all.
