An commemorative event, "A Feast of Music with Nicolai Bergmann – Yuri Hiranuma & Iwao Furusawa," celebrating the 25th anniversary of FM radio station J-WAVE and the 5th anniversary of Billboard Live, will take place on Sunday, March 24th.
The event will showcase a "stage where music and art meet," centered around a performance by Nicolai Bergmann, a Denmark-born artist known for his innovative ideas, such as his signature floral box arrangements. Joining him will be Iwao Furusawa, a leading Japanese violinist, and Yuri Hiranuma, a composer and keyboardist whose music evokes a transparent, ethereal world.
On the day, Nicolai Bergmann will draw inspiration from the ambient sounds, the venue's atmosphere, and the audience's reactions to create impromptu floral art, synchronized with music that evokes nature, played on instruments like the violin and piano. "I am very much looking forward to seeing what kind of work I can create myself. Please experience this one-night-only collaboration, which can only be seen here, with your own ears and eyes," says Nicolai Bergmann.
What kind of chemistry will emerge when ethereal music and imaginative floral art converge to create a single world? We invite you to witness that moment.
