Gagaku Shofukai
Travel to Heian-era Japan through the fantasy of a gagaku show.
Gagaku Shofukai is a gagaku organization, a synthesis of traditional performing arts, considered one of the oldest orchestras in the world.
Music and art, handed down from generation to generation, intact since the Heian period.
Gagaku performances use a variety of Japanese musical instruments to evoke an ancestral Japanese landscape.
The audience is immersed in a performance of sound and choreography from a bygone era:
From instruments to head-to-toe costumes, you're transported back to the Heian period, when aristocrats recounted their encounters with gods, spectres and spirits.
During the festival, you can enjoy not only classic gagaku scenes, but also collaborations with other musical genres. After the show, visitors can discover Japanese instruments and costumes on display at the Gagaku Shofukai stand.
Experience the enchantment of Gagaku Shofukai, a showcase for Japanese culture.
