Faqs

What is the specific role of Daimaou Kosaka in this concert series?

Daimaou Kosaka serves as the “Personality” or host of the event. Rather than a traditional formal introduction, he engages in a lively discussion with the organists to help the audience understand the technical and emotional aspects of the performance in an entertaining way.

How large is the organ at Suntory Hall’s Main Hall?

The organ at Suntory Hall is one of the largest in the world, featuring 5,898 pipes. Its design is considered “all-purpose” or “all-rounder,” meaning it is capable of performing a vast range of music from the Baroque era to modern contemporary works with incredible authenticity.

Can I attend just one of the four scheduled themes?

Yes, each of the four dates is a standalone event focusing on a different theme: “Organist,” “Repertoire,” “Individuality,” and “Sound.” While attending the whole series provides a comprehensive education, tickets are sold individually for each specific date.

Are there any modern songs included in the organ performances?

The second theme, “Repertoire,” specifically focuses on the modern scene. The program includes pieces like “Aqua” by the world-famous composer Ryuichi Sakamoto, demonstrating that the organ is not limited to traditional church or classical music.
