The monumental concert by Hirokami and Kyoto Symphony Orchestra is now available on CD! The Kyoto Symphony Orchestra celebrated its 60th anniversary in 2016. This is the first subscription concert of the same year, and the 600th in total, recorded live. Conducted by Junichi Hirokami, the 12th Permanent Conductor and Music Advisor of the Kyoto Symphony Orchestra, the duo has been deepening their relationship since 2008, and won the 46th Suntory Music Award in 2015. The duo is a \"must-hear\" duo. This monumental concert, which sold out, is now available on CD. The performance of \"Jupiter\" is based simply on the compositional principle of \"the contrast between power and elegance. In the fugue of the last movement, the middle bass is resonant and the magnificent construction is very convincing. On the other hand, \"Zarathustra\" is an intelligent and skillful performance that skillfully draws out the beauty of each piece from various musical ideas, from the open, grand sound to the deep, dark reverberations.The Kyoto Symphony Orchestra responded to Hirokami's lucid, step-by-step approach with a wonderful response.
