Business Overview
This is an attempt to create your own lullaby by reimagining "komori uta" as a traditional culture from the perspective of Japanese and music. Through this activity, they relive the joy of having a child and renew their determination for the future of childcare. "Komori Uta" also has an aspect of art therapy in which parents can feel the feelings of their ancestors, reaffirm the bonds between parents and children, refresh their child-rearing, and encourage fathers to participate in child-rearing. You can experience all of this in the form of performances, plays, and lectures. The performers will be Ensemble Leda, a classical chamber music group that has been conducting concerts for children since 1985. The program will consist of (1) lectures, (2) songwriting, (3) composition, (4) trial performances, (5) concerts, and (6) presentation of the finished score. Songs played in this program include "Edo Lullaby" by Schubert, "Lullaby" by Mozart (Fries), "YOU RAISE ME UP" by Garden, "Lullaby of the Infant Jesus" and "Music of the Cave."

Profile
[DA/LEDA]
Ensemble LEDA, the parent organization of DA/LEDA, was founded in 1985 and has since continued to hold concerts for children such as "Classics for the First Time." In January 2017, the Kawasaki City Gender Equality Center "Sukuramu 21" planned and implemented the "Only One Lullaby in the World" (currently "Watashi no Komori Uta"), which was operated by the NPO "Next-Generation Support" as a collaborative project for gender equality. At that time, we felt an important response, and we established DA/LEDA to develop this.
