'Marvels of Saudi Orchestra' set to perform in Tokyo

After its dazzling performances in Paris, New York, London, and Mexico, the ‘Marvels of Saudi Orchestra’ is set to bring its musical extravaganza to Tokyo,  Japan, local media reported.

The Marvels of Saudi Orchestra will play alongside Japanese musicians at the Tokyo Opera City on November 22 as part of showcasing Saudi talent on the international scene. The performance, which is being organised by the Ministry of Culture through the Music Commission, helps to introduce Saudi Arabia’s diverse and rich musical legacy to listeners across the world.

In order to showcase the inventiveness of Saudi musicians and celebrate the Kingdom’s abundant musical variety, this trip is part of an effort to improve cultural and artistic interaction between Saudi Arabia and the rest of the globe.

Both Japanese and international audiences will have the chance to take in a wide range of musical selections that combine worldwide and oriental sounds at the Tokyo performance. Previous tours by the Saudi Orchestra have been a huge success. This trip is a chance to improve the Kingdom’s standing on the global art map and offer a fresh perspective on contemporary Saudi art.

The selection of Tokyo as the fifth stop for the tour is an affirmation of the strength of the growing cultural relations between Saudi Arabia and Japan, and a support for the efforts made by the Kingdom within Vision 2030 to promote arts and cultural heritage.

The Saudi Orchestra includes a group of the most prominent Saudi musicians, who represent various regions of the Kingdom in a musical experience that combines authenticity with modernity in every show.
