Contemprary Tanka Poet Mariko Kitakubo.
お知らせ
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.

The art event, "Animusic Portugal 2018" was held during Jul. 2nd to 7th in Foz Do Arelho, Portugal. |
 |
In the section of "Atlantic Sunset",which started at 6 p.m. on Jul. 6th, I performed Japanese-English bilingual tanka reading. |
 |
It was a great experience for me because I was able to meet expressive performers such as the professors of music universities from all over the world including the communist bloc. |
 |
I found out that many of them have interests in short poems, and I would like to thank all of them who listened to my performance. |

My tanka will be posted in the August edition of "Einunddreissig"
Ms. Valeria Barouch, the co-editor of literary journal, "Einunddreissig", told me that she is going to post 10 pieces of my tanka in the August edition of Einunddreissig. The pieces will be translated into German.
I am very glad to hear from her some years after I performed reading in Rorschach, Switzerland in 2015. Ms. Barouch, thank you very much for your wonderful offer!
