Hiroshima Great Buddha Peace Memorial Violin Concert

Hiroshima Great Buddha Peace Memorial Concert
With the memories of Hiroshima in our hearts, the 'Hiroshima Great Buddha' at Gokurakuji in Nara stands quietly. On August 6th, as prayers for peace resonate, the melodies of the violin and piano soar to the heavens along with classic masterpieces and Japanese songs. Under the watchful gaze of the golden Buddha etched in the ancient trees of Kamakura, the vibrations of the strings and the whispers of the keys connect the past and the future. We weave hopeful melodies from the scars of the atomic bomb, entrusting our wishes for peace to sound. In the moment where the tranquility of Nara intersects with the soul of Hiroshima, let us unite our hearts at Gokurakuji and pray through music. The world becomes one. ■Notes Violin / Keiichi Nishimura, Rino Sasakura Piano / Kimiko Nakano
