Gagaku is known as refined Japanese Court music. It
has been performed over 1200 years. We have a rare opportunity to
appreciate this ancient sound performed by Gagaku Music Society of
Tenri University. The society was founded in 1951 and since then its
members have actively been performing in Japan and overseas to promote
Gagaku. Enjoy the unique ensemble in Melbourne.
