Tanka reading in Bergisch Gladbach, Germany on Tuesday, July 19

20220719_01.jpg
On July 19, 2022, I presented a tanka reading performance in Bergisch Gladbach, Germany, for about one hour from 18:00.

I was happy to provide an opportunity for those who usually study haiku and poetry to experience the unique language rhythm and kimono culture of Japan.

I would like to thank everyone who came to the event despite the extreme heat of 40℃ during the daytime, which is rare even for the local area.
