Japan special weekend at Paris Philharmonie

After a first weekend back in October 2018 dedicated to Japan that met a great success, Paris Philharmonie is back with a second weekend dedicated to Japanese culture from February 6 to 10, 2019.

Curious people, children and adults can attend concerts (including two provided by Joe Hisaishi who created - among others - score for movies by Hayao Miyazaki!), young audience shows, tours, masterclasses...

Also on the menu for these Japanese days, Nô and Kyogen theater, two genres of traditional Japanese dramas, perpetuated thanks to continuous passing from the 13th century.
