Tourism in Japan : Come in touch with the arts

In 1949, Tokyo University of the Arts is Tokyo National School of Art and Tokyo Music School were established as a unified. It is the highest university in the field of art, and there is the most oldest history in the field of art. Education specialized for music and art is being given.
A friend sang an opera “Marriage of Figaro” before graduation. It was the opera that concludes the last round of student life, but there was youth and passion.
This university frequently publishes the results students learned to everyone. If you are interested, you can also visit the campus.

Hi @shigeo ,

Thanks for this interesting post.

Personally, like to go to theatre or opera, and I’ve seen Marriage of Figaro, but I prefer Carmen. I’ve never studied art, but I always wanted. I would love to see this campus and some exam scenes.

Hello @shigeo ,

This is great, I personally never been to such performance before because I don’t know which one to choose from, are you an art enthusiast?.

Just out of my curiosity, to attend this show that’s held by the university for is it open for public or only by invitation only?

Hi @shigeo ,

I personally never had the chance to follow Opera in a proper way but I have always been surrounded by this genre somehow. My first approach was thanks to the movie “Amadeus” by Milos Forman and then I had the chance to move to the hometown of Giacomo Puccini, the composer of “Madama Butterfly” and “Turandot”.

Are you a big fan of Opera? Which is your favourite one?

Hi (^▽^)

The department of the university is music and art, but the undergraduate is divided into finer details. It will part into each session from that and teach.
In the university there is an art museum where students were made, there is a display hall.
On March 17, the opera “Madame is maid” Giovanni Battista Pergolesi composer (Naples’ faction) is performed.
I am going to listen it.

In Japan, there are many people active in all fields such as sports, art, art, theater, crafts and so on. You can go out and enjoy any place as long as you are interested. I am interested in things I like and I am challenging various things.

Since the university is an open campus, anyone can a enjoy if you watch the website of the university, and apply for a concert.

Hello @shigeo ,

Thank you for providing more information and also for the very nice self made emoticon.

In my personal opinion Japan is one of the most innovative country and I really love the culture there. Next time, I think I will visit Japan for a longer time to experience more things, from food, culture, history and nature.

You are so lucky to teach there and see all the operas what you just want. I would like to see a post of that museum, it’s very interesting.

I love musicals, but I am not good at opera.
But I heard about Amadeus, Phantom of the Opera, Aria, Madama Butterfly, Habanera, Tosca, Aida etc.
My friend is an opera singer and I am enjoying her singing voice.

Hi @Petra_M

I made a mistake in my writing and I will correct it.

The department of the university is music and art, but the undergraduate is divided into finer details. I am teaching in every section from there.

Wrong : I am teaching in every section from there.

Correct : It will part into each session from that and teach.
