For its 41st season, Music From Japan is introducing a new Artist Residence Program to facilitate dialogue between composers, critics and music scholars from the US and Japan.
This year, we are inviting composer Misato Mochizuki and musicologist Yuji Numano to New York to participate in a series of lectures, seminars, and forums with their American counterparts, including critic Nancy Malitz and composers Richard Teitelbaum and Carl Stone.
MFJ will also present a weekend of Japanese contemporary music, including a world premieres of a piece commissioned by Music From Japan.
February 27th: The Works of Misato Mochizuki
February 28th: Japanese Composers in the 21st Century
On Saturday at 8pm, The Works of Misato Mochizuki will feature several of the composer's pieces, performed by the Music From Japan Chamber Ensemble. The concert will be preceded by a lecture, at 7pm, by Mr. Numano on Japanese composition in the current century. The Sunday 2pm concert, Japanese Composers in the 21st Century, will be curated by Mr. Numano. He will present a variety of recent music by Japanese composers including the world premiere of a Music From Japan commissioned piece by Hiroyuki Yamamoto. This will provide an opportunity for New Yorkers to hear compositions rarely, if ever performed in the US
