"Kapustin Summer Festival 2026!" Produced by Masahiro Kawakami Unofficial
Part 1: Concert and Part 2: Master Class
2026/08/19(We.) 14:00 Starting
A one-day-only special event will be held in Omotesando, Tokyo, where attendees can fully immerse themselves in the music of composer Nikolai Kapustin. Produced by Masahiro Kawakami, the event will bring together performers with a special affinity for Kapustin’s works to present a diverse program ranging from his most beloved masterpieces to pieces rarely performed live. The first part of the program will feature a concert that fully showcases the charm of Kapustin’s rhythmic and original compositions. The second part will feature a piano master class—a rare event even on the global stage—led by Masahiro Kawakami, who knows the composer inside and out. This will be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to learn solid technique and a deep approach to the works, while unraveling the composer’s intentions. Please join us for an intense and stimulating experience as we delve deeply into Kapustin’s musical world—which fuses classical tradition with jazz idioms—through both performance and commentary. The musicians’ passionate, all-out performances will vividly enliven Omotesando in the height of summer.
