Music Dialogue Discovery Series 2026-2027 September Performances
Event Date: 2026.12.15 etc.

This series is divided into two parts: "Open Rehearsals with Subtitled Commentary," which will allow the public to see the music-making process of up-and-coming young performers and experienced performers, and "Main Performances." Continuing the theme from last season, four performances will be held throughout the year this season.
It is also possible to attend just the rehearsal or just the main performance.
At the end of every performance there will be a "dialogue moment" between the audience and the performers, allowing us to discover new ways to enjoy music from various angles.
In 2026-2027, following on from last season, composers from all over Europe will be featured one after another. Turning our attention "outside" the German-speaking world, which has produced many famous chamber music masterpieces, we will also explore the brilliance of the cultures cultivated in Eastern and Northern Europe.
In the year of Brahms' death, this young genius was in Vienna, a melting pot of various ethnicities...and what kind of sound did the Czech master capture, despite his ear disease?
Tickets go on sale June 13, 2026.
*Due to planned renovation work on the main hall building in the middle of fiscal year 2014, the venue for this performance at Tsukiji Honganji Temple will be changed to the "Zuiho Room".

This series will be divided into two parts: an "open rehearsal" where you can see young and experienced musicians creating music together, and a "main performance" (you can choose to attend only one of them). At the end of every performance, there will be a "conversation time" between the audience and the musicians, allowing you to enjoy a peaceful time that is different from the performance. We look forward to welcoming everyone, from those well versed in music to beginners, to this opportunity to experience the charm and joy of chamber music to the fullest.
