WELCOME to the world of the

TOKYO SINFONIA

The Tokyo Sinfonia has won much praise for the imaginative programming and inviting presentation of its "hugely enjoyable" events. Distinguished by warm sound, lively expression and friendly rapport with the audience, its performances embody the warmth and immediacy of Robert Rÿker’s affectionate approach to music. Its performing philosophy is that the orchestra is a great chamber music, and every player a soloist. Dedicated to presenting programmes to raise the standard of performance, encourage the next generation, and develop new audiences for music, the Tokyo Sinfonia has appeared in Oji Hall, the Foreign Correspondents'’ Club of Japan, the Great Hall of the Russian Embassy, the Golden Hall of the Tokyo Masonic Center, The Strings by InterContinental Tokyo, Shinsei Hall, Munetsugu Hall in Nagoya, and elsewhere about the nation.

:: NEXT EVENT ::

Our Japanese Serenade August 8 is next in the Tokyo Sinfonia's popular series of FCCJ dinner-concerts. In salute to the obon season, the Japanese menu for the evening is a delicate mix of contrasting tastes. Your ear will be tantalised with a complementary variety of delightfully contrasting works by four very different composers of Japan -- Yashushi Akutagawa, Michio Miyagi, Hisatada Otaka and Toru Takemitsu – each with his own story, each with his own voice.

Plan to come with a friend or friends you enjoy being with and book early to reserve your seats at the tables.
