Business Overview

Tokiwazu-bushi is traditional Japanese music that was born and raised in Edo over 200 years ago. In Tokiwazu, there is something like a 'school' depending on each family and master, and even the same piece of music is expressed slightly differently. This time, young musicians from across the "schools" gathered together to perform and inherit the classic pieces of Tokiwazu-bushi, traditional Japanese music. In addition, it was held in a studio in Harajuku, a gateway to the orchestra's success, not in a venue where traditional Japanese music concerts are regularly held, in order to reach audiences outside the context of traditional Japanese music.
