Music festival on the banks of Ryogoku Bridge_Day5
This event hails the start of music festivals created by young musicians. In part one, there will be performances of pieces chosen by the musicians themselves. Part two features conversations between musicians and Midori TANAKA, a radio presenter who presides over educational yet entertaining music-related radio programs. TANAKA focuses on the performers, and interviews them regarding their thoughts on everything from program structure to actual performance. Guides available for each concert allow audiences to find out much more about the artists.

General Incorporated Association Monten (Ryogoku Monten Hall)
After its opening in 1989, Monnaka Tenjo Hall staged an ambitious and varied program of music and performances with the aim of offering a high-quality experience of art and fostering a broad audience base, oscillating between the two poles of “tradition and modernity.” In 2013 it moved to Ryogoku and changed its name to Ryogoku Monten Hall to reflect its standing as a new art space. The venue operates by leveraging partnerships with artists from various genres and local communities. It creates new forms of culture by constantly holding experimental events.
