Description:

Sumida Triphony Hall in Sumida, Tokyo, presents a live recording on CD from the "Sumida Peace Memorial Concert 2018 "Sumida x Hiroshima"" organized by Sumida Triphony Hall. Brahms by Toshiyuki Ueoka, who has been active as a conductor and music director in Germany for many years, is a fan favorite. Ueoka faced the score with sincerity and created a solemn and beautiful image of Brahms. The sound of each section resonated with each other, and the orchestra's tone, which expressed a variety of colors, proved that the New Japan Philharmonic has risen to a higher level. The encore performance of Beethoven's Symphony No. 9 in the third movement brought tears to many in the audience. Please listen to this excellent performance filled with prayers for peace.
