2022OMF Has Officially Begun with Liedduos!
Thank you all for coming to the opening Liedduo Recital of the 2022 Seiji Ozawa Matsumoto Festival. Despite a typhoon forecast, the beautiful blue sky held and welcomed a full audience at the Agata no Mori Bunka Kaikan.
The student artists spent a week studying with Ms. Mitsuko Shirai, a world-famous Lied singer/teacher. The intensive week must have been a dream come true for the students! Seven vocal duos, and brilliant piano accompaniment, treated the audience to a rich performance of German poetry. 2022OMF is on until Sep 9, so come and enjoy the festival and the beautiful city of Matsumoto!
