Description
[Machine Translation] The Tohoku Youth Orchestra will release an album containing all of the performances by the Tohoku Youth Orchestra at the memorial concert for Ryuichi Sakamoto, director of the Tohoku Youth Orchestra, held in March 2024! The Tohoku Youth Orchestra, a mixed orchestra of elementary school students to university students from Iwate, Miyagi, and Fukushima prefectures, was started by Ryuichi Sakamoto immediately after the Great East Japan Earthquake. The orchestra performed in Iwate on March 23, 2024, Miyagi on March 24, Fukushima on March 30, and Tokyo on March 31, 2024, as a memorial concert for the director Ryuichi Sakamoto, who passed away on March 28 the previous year. In addition to Ryuichi Sakamoto's representative pieces "The Last Emperor," "Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence," "Aqua," and "The Sheltering Sky," which were performed in Ryuichi Sakamoto's last solo piano concert work "Opus," Ryuichi Sakamoto also wrote a piece for the 1992 Barcelona Olympics opening ceremony. The concert is a complete collection of Ryuichi Sakamoto's music, including "El Mar Mediterrani" written by Ryuichi Sakamoto for the opening ceremony of the 1992 Barcelona Olympic Games, and "Japan Soccer Song", one of the most popular soccer anthems in Japan. The reading corner was performed by Sayuri Yoshinaga and Non. Proceeds from the sale of this album will be used to continue the activities of the Tohoku Youth Orchestra.
