Looking back at a spectacular stage performance in July 2013.
I performed in the production “Sogaku Bibu” (奏楽美舞) held at the Shimbashi Yakult Hall in Tokyo.
A Symphony of Dance, Calligraphy, and Music
The concept of the show was “A magnificent symphony of beauty spun by dance, calligraphy, and music, transcending eternal time.”
A wonderful group of artists gathered to present a novel and unique stage experience.
A Rare Collaboration of Four Calligraphers
Usually, I perform as a solo calligrapher collaborating with musicians.
However, this stage was special. It featured a collaboration with **other female calligraphers** active in Japan and abroad.
For the grand finale, four of us took the stage together to create a unified masterpiece:

Nanami Nanasawa, Mai Nakanishi, Lorelei Chang, and Chosho Yabe.
The synchronization of four brushes breathing life into the paper, accompanied by dance and music, created a breathtaking moment of artistic harmony.
