In commemoration of the 150th biligual tanka reading performance overseas, I compiled photos of 36 cities around the world where I performed Japanese-English tanka reading. The photos of domestic cities where I attended international events are also included.
I would like to continue to devote myself to introduce the charm of tanka and Japanese poetic metera from now on.

The 84th edition of CHUBU NIHON KAJIN KAI journal posted an information about upcoming my reading performance. I would like to extend my gratitude toward the society.
On Nov. 3rd, starting at 14:00 till 15:30, I will perform tanka reading and and appear in a talk session. While performing tanka reading, I will play some ethnic musical instruments to add some sound effects. I sincerely hope the audience enjoy it.
So far, I did over 150 bilingual tanka reading performances overseas and in international events. I would like to increase the number of opportunities to deliver my performance to domesitic audience.
