これまでの歩み

Tokyo Opera Nomori

The “Tokyo Opera Nomori” had been held every spring for about a month since 2005 to celebrate the arrival of spring in Tokyo with "music" centering on the production and performance of newly staged operas. Led by music director Seiji Ozawa, the festival had been co-producing new operas and giving World Premiere performances in Tokyo with the Wiener Staatsoper, the Opéra National de Paris, the Teatro Comunale di Firenze and others at the core of productions. There were also orchestral and chamber music performances with related themes of its composer of the year. Since its second performance in 2006, numerous concerts have been held at cultural facilities in Ueno Park and been well received by the many visitors to the park.

Spring Festival in Tokyo(since 2009~)

Since 2009—the 5th edition of the festival—the "Spring Festival in Tokyo" has made a new start as the successor of the "Tokyo Opera Nomori". It features the “Tokyo-Harusai Wagner Series” at the Tokyo Bunka Kaikan, orchestral performances, concerts by leading artists from Japan and abroad, and "Museum Concerts" at various museums in Ueno Park. Our goal is to continue to pursue and evolve various forms of music festivals rooted in Tokyo-Ueno.
