I’m planning a move to Japan in the coming months, and I’m wondering if there are local orchestras where I can play violin, or any other opportunities to play for fun?
One major requirement is that the conductor/group would need to speak English in rehearsal.
I’ve played in a community orchestra in NYC for 6+ years, and have played violin since I was a child. I’m a decent player, but not at a professional level, so I’m looking for a group of other hobbyist musicians who practice and perform together around Tokyo. Does that kind of thing exist?
If there are no orchestras, anyone have ideas or suggestions for getting in touch with other musicians to play quartets or form community with music?
Thanks!!
