The ninth performance in a regular series by the Phidias Trio comprising Maiko Matsuoka on violin, Ryuta Iwase on clarinet and Erika Kawamura on piano.
Under the concept “Re-interpret,” concert organizers commissioned a new work based on Franz Schubert’s “Winterreise” from Yasutaki Inamori, a composer active both in Japan and overseas. The world premiere was given with guest tenor, Seiji Kanazawa. The performance program featured four works: “Illusion einer einsamen Reise im Winter 1827” (premiere of the new work by Yasutaki Inamori); “Prelude for clarinet and piano,” “Ubi caritas et amor,” and “Moments musicaux No. 2“ by Franz Schubert.
