This performance will feature a number of masterpieces that harmonize beautiful Japanese poetry and music. The program includes "Me, a Little Bird, and a Bell" composed by Masaya Ishiwaka on a poem by Misuzu Kaneko, as well as works that emphasize the importance of words by famous poets such as Nozomu Hayashi and Shuntaro Tanikawa. In particular, visitors can fully enjoy the delicate world of words and melodies in works such as "Housuke no Hiyoko," a song story by composer Hikaru Hayashi. This will be a special time to rediscover the warmth and power of Japanese songs through the emotional expression of professional performers. We hope you will take the time to enjoy these heartwarming songs that color our daily lives in the intimate setting of the small hall.
