Michiko Hayashi's new recital series will open at Hakuju Hall in Tomigaya on July 17

Built around Toru Takemitsu's SONGS, the first date is set for July 17 at 19:00, with general ticket sales already open from May 16.

Hakuju Hall in Tomigaya will host the first date of Michiko Hayashi's new recital series, Prayer and Songs of Silence: Toru Takemitsu SONGS Complete, on Friday, July 17, 2026. The official concert page lists a 19:00 start with doors opening at 18:30.

For local readers, the practical point is that tickets are already on sale. The page lists all seats as reserved at 7,700 yen including tax, says general sales started on Saturday, May 16, and names mezzo-soprano Michiko Hayashi and pianist Ichiro Nodaira on the bill.

The official message on the page says Hayashi chose Takemitsu's work in part because 2026 marks 30 years since the composer's death. Hakuju Hall's access page places the venue at 1-37-5 Tomigaya, about five minutes from Yoyogi-Koen Station or Yoyogi-Hachiman Station, so it makes sense to check availability before planning the evening.
