Contemprary Tanka Poet Mariko Kitakubo. Article details.

My tanka will be used at the concert.

My tanka will be used at the concert to be held at “Ohmi Gakudo” hall in Tokyo Opera City.
It is a great offer from Ms. Yumi Nakamura, a music composer. She has been telling me she wants to put melody to my tanka for some time.

Place “Ohmi Gakudo” hall, 3rd Floor Tokyo Opera City

I am truly happy at the very thought that my tanka works accompanied by wonderful music fill “Ohmi Gakudo”, a concert hall designed with the inspiration of chapel. I would like to extend my gratitude to Ms. Nakamura and Mr. Niki.
