Haus
Sonnenschein, located in Fuji City, Shizuoka Prefecture, at the
base of beautiful Mount
Fuji was founded in 1992. It is a classical music school offering
lessons in piano,
organ, harpsichord and violin. The music salon, in which monthly
chamber music concerts
by world class musicians, including members of the Vienna and Berlin
philharmonic
orchestras, are held, seats up to 70 people and was specially designed
with acoustics
which are ideal for the performance of early music. The 7 meter high
beechwood ceiling,
Provencal terra cotta tiles, arched windows and oak benches bring to
mind a small
European chapel. In addition to a half concert grand, a Von Nagel
two-manual Flemish harpsichord, and various other instruments, the
salon contains two historical ones:
a pipe
organ built in Paris in 1910 by Mutin Cavaille-Coll and a
square piano built
in London in1833 by Broadwood & Sons.
Next time you are in Japan, please treat yourself an intimate and
relaxing evening of
world class music.
