Overview

Music in the Dark(R) is a unique concert experience that invites the audience into a world of total darkness to sharpen their auditory senses. Led by the acclaimed shakuhachi master Fujiwara Dozan, this performance brings together talented musicians, both with and without visual impairments, to create a deeply immersive soundscape. By removing visual stimuli, the event encourages listeners to feel the resonance of traditional Japanese instruments and contemporary melodies with their entire bodies.

The program features a blend of traditional and modern works, including the iconic “Spring Sea” by Michio Miyagi and the evocative “Crane’s Nest” by Nakao Miyayama. Accompanied by the Fuga Chikuin shakuhachi ensemble, koto player Yuji Sawamura, and soprano Yuina Koshio, the performance explores an inclusive musical journey. This concert is not just a musical recital but an opportunity to reflect on an inclusive society through the shared experience of sound in a pitch-black space.
