Venue: The Hall at the Hara Museum of Contemporary Art
The Hara Museum is delighted to welcome composer Nobukazu Takemura to perform at the museum on August 25 and 26. The internationally-renowned Japanese artist has established a strong reputation over his career, exploring different modes of musical expression in jazz and electronica, as well as working as a club DJ since the 90s. Takemura also employs other forms, through painting, installation, composing music for fashion designer Issey Miyake, and participating in contemporary art festival Roppongi Crossing.
Takemura’s new work ‘Time Remaining – music for 4 players’ will be performed by N.T Ensemble, an orchestral group formed by the artist to expand on his ongoing research into the relationship between language and sound, while utilizing text and images, within electronic music.
Special opening acts will be held on both dates.
