New York based Duo YUMENO - Yoko Reikano Kimura (koto/Japanese 13-string zither, shamisen/Japanese long-neck lute and voice) and Hikaru Tamaki (violoncello) - presents a concert of contemporary works, as well as classical Western and Japanese music.

The concert will also feature newly commissioned works by the renowned composer Daron Hagen and by Yoko Satō. Place: Marc A.
