The “Lieder Night” concert series began in 2022 with the aim of spreading the enjoyment and culture of listening to lieder music to a wider audience.
Each concert features a variety of songs, regardless of language or composer, based on a unique theme. The series aims to offer performances that can be enjoyed by everyone by incorporating subtitles, explanatory talks by composers, lighting, and acting.
In the future, they plan regional performances and concerts that can be enjoyed by parents and children and willdevelop performances throughout Japan, as well as to provide more opportunities for young singers who are studying lieder to be active.
