JR Central will hold “Miyako no Kanade,” a special concert featuring classical and Studio Ghibli music, on October 3 at Kamigamo Shrine, a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage site in Kyoto City.
The concert will be presented in two sessions: the first from 2:45 p.m. to 4:15 p.m., and the second from 6:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. Violinists Ryosuke Suho and Ryota Higashi, cellist Yuya Mizuno, and violist Ayako Tahara will perform. All seats are reserved.
The program includes J.S. Bach’s Cello Suite No. 1, “Prelude”; “Chaconne” from Partita No. 2 for Solo Violin; and Dvořák’s String Quartet No. 12, “American.” The concert will also feature music by Joe Hisaishi from Studio Ghibli films, including “Ashitaka and San” from Princess Mononoke, “One Summer’s Day” from Spirited Away, and “The Path of the Wind” from My Neighbor Totoro.
The price is 3,980 yen per person. The package includes a concert ticket, the Kyoto Autumn Temple Tour Passport, and a Kyoto City Transportation Bureau Subway and Bus One-Day Pass.
