Among his wide-ranging activities, his connection to the Konnyaku-za Opera Theater—where he served as music director and resident composer from 1975 and as artistic director from 1997—was particularly deep. His work has been highly acclaimed; for example, he received the Agency for Cultural Affairs Arts Festival Award in 1989 for *Gosh the Cellist*.\nThis album is a live recording of the memorial concert held for Hikaru Hayashi on December 28, 2012. Under the direction of Kyoko Hagi, representative and music director of the Konnyaku-za, a collection of exquisite songs—performed as if to be delivered directly to “Hikaru-san”—moved the packed audience to tears.\nThe booklet includes a message from poet Shuntaro Tanikawa. This marks the beginning of a long journey tracing the path taken by Hikaru Hayashi and the Konnyaku-za.\nFontec\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fontec","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53595681784097,"sku":"4988065095826","price":23.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/4988065095826.jpg?v=1790482269","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/en-it\/products\/4988065095826","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
