This was the second local performance for Sample, and it was his first visit to five of the six cities of Tokyo, Nagoya, Mie, Kyoto, Kitakyushu and Sapporo. In addition to using samples as a stepping stone for future joint creations with public halls, we actively conducted outreach activities such as holding workshops in Mie and Nagoya.
