Jiro Yoshikawa Concert: The Melodies of Flamenco Guitar and Guitarrpa Unofficial

This performance features Jiro Yoshikawa, a flamenco guitarist and the inventor of the “Gitarpa,” a unique instrument that fuses the guitar and the harp. It offers a rare opportunity to enjoy the harmony between the Gitarpa’s elegant, harp-like tones and the powerful, resonant bass characteristic of the guitar. Held as a special event accompanying the exhibition “Nao Hoshino: Wooden Paintings ‘Tarasea’—45 Years of Art,” this performance will create a unique space where music and art resonate together. At the Takarazuka Vega Hall—a venue renowned for its excellent acoustics—please enjoy the rich musical world produced by this innovative instrument to your heart’s content. The potential of the Gitarpa, combined with its delicate yet passionate layers of sound, is sure to deeply move the hearts of listeners. This promises to be a memorable experience not only for guitar enthusiasts but also for anyone seeking a new musical experience. We invite you to come to the venue and experience firsthand the fusion of traditional techniques and this innovative instrument.
