My pianist Prof. Mako Okamoto and I received the Aoyama Music Award for our concert with the programme “Traumgekrönt” on 18 March 2023. The award ceremony will also take place on 2 March 2024 in the Kyoto Baroque Hall.
Many thanks to Laura-Erika Nakamura from Josef Woodwind Manufacture, who took great care of the concert organisation.
