Marimba Neri Neri from Kyoto Art Center (Tentative)
Marimba player Aoi Nogi will perform Marimba Neri Neri in Kyoto, walking along the streets with marimba! Playing marimba improvised with the sound, space and people she meets. Let’s enjoy the journey finding the music of autumn Kyoto with marimba. This is a pre-program of the exhibition to be held at Kyoto Art Center next year.
