Dentsu Inc. Orchestra and TSUNAMI Violin Present Charity Concert
The 'Dentsu Group Charity Concert 2015 ~ For Disaster Recovery. With the TSUNAMI Violin ~' was held on November 4 at Dentsu Hall in Shiodome, Tokyo (hosted by the same executive committee).
Four and a half years after the Great East Japan Earthquake. This concert, held annually since the year after the disaster to pray for recovery, marked its fourth iteration.
This year, violinist Kimiko Nakazawa, wife of world-renowned violin restorer Muneyuki Nakazawa, performed on the "TSUNAMI Violin" crafted by her husband from driftwood found in the disaster zone. Violinist Emiri Miyamoto was also welcomed as a guest, collaborating with the Dentsu Inc. Orchestra, composed of approximately 60 Dentsu Group employees. They performed Vivaldi's "The Four Seasons," Massenet's "Meditation from Thaïs," and Wagner's "Prelude to Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg" performed solely by the Dentsu Inc. Orchestra. The performance concluded with a standing ovation from the audience.
Donations from attendees will be given to the "Bonds Connected by a Thousand Tones" project, a reconstruction support initiative by musicians, through Classic for Japan, led by Mr. Muneyuki Nakazawa.
