“TOKYO Chanson Festival” was started 9 years ago under the ideal of “Making Tama Area a Mecca for Chanson”. With the participation of general citizens and promoting networks among various organizations related to chansons, we aim at creating a major music cultural base hopefully referred to as “Chanson, That’s Tama!” and also enhancing a cultural level of Tama Area as a whole.
This year’s “TOKYO Chanson Festival” was composed of “Chanson Promenade” participated by amateur singers on March 10 , “Chanson Drama、We Shall Never Forget” with chansons, recitation and pictures and “Chanson Gallery” by15 professional singers including 2 guest singers on March 11.
TOKYO Chanson Festival Committee
The Committee was established in 2011, with the participation of mainly chanson loving local citizens, to plan, organize and execute TOKYO Chanson Festival. Since May, 2012, the Committee has held Chanson Festival almost each year with the only exception of 2020 when the planned Festival was forced to be cancelled due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The Festivals have also been supported by many local companies.
