A new cultural experience in Tokyo: Asakusa, where the harmony of prayer and sound resonates beautifully.
In the sacred spaces of temples and shrines, traditional and contemporary music resonate together, reflecting the origins of Japanese prayer and sound. From Asakusa, where tradition meets art, we share the “beauty of prayer” with the world through the fusion of music and Japanese spiritual culture.
*This project is implemented with the support of the “Subsidy for Promoting Tourism during Nighttime and Early Morning Hours” provided by the Tokyo Convention & Visitors Bureau.
