On 13th February 2021, Tomoko Hojo and I held an experimental live event, "Assorted Sounds", at OTOOTO, Tokyo, with guests Atsumi Kojima (sho) and Chiho Oka (sound artist). We presented improvisational performances and new work, including my piece "After 9-5", created though an exchange with writer, Charlotte Wührer.
「音のつめあわせ」はサウンド・アーティストの北條知子と一緒に企画されたコンサートです。今回は、笙奏者の小島篤美とサウンド・アーティストの岡千穂をゲストに迎え、新作発表、即興演奏をおこないました。上演された« After 9-5» は私と作家シャルロット・ヴューラー （ベルリン）との共同制作作品である。
Our performance video is free to watch, but donations are much appreciated. We couldn't invite a live audience, so in place of buying a ticket, please buy us a coffee to support our work! Thank you!

A full programme for the symposium can be found on the festival's website: "Meeting of Worlds: Traditional Instruments and Their Role in Contemporary Composition". In my talk, "Japanese & Western Art Forms in “THE鍵KEY”: an Immersive Opera", I will shed light on why particular instruments were chosen, the results of their combination, and the effect this had on the creative process. I shall also share footage from the Tokyo and London performances. The symposium shall be in English and broadcast online - link to follow!
