2024.5.13 Concert at Musashino Art University Museum

On 13 May, I performed with cellist Aki Kitajima at the opening of an exhibition at the Musashino Art University Museum & Library. The large atrium space connecting the museum, designed by Yoshinobu Ashihara, and the library, designed by Sou Fujimoto, resonated well and made us feel comfortable performing.

The exhibition in the library, which is usually closed to outsiders because the museum is closed, was also very interesting.
