Music hall in Japan
The situation of classical music in Japan is, how to say, better than before, I guess.
One of the turning points from minor to major was Manga, name “Nodame Cantabile”.
A lot of young Japanese becomes interested in Classical music!! Then Classical music already have citizen right!
At the same time, a lot of Japanese players get International awards now, such as Mayuko Kamio Violinist, Sayaka Shoji Violinist, Nobuyuki Tsujii Pianist and so on.
I hope wonderful music become more popular in Japan!!

As a big fan (in America) of Nobuyuki Tsujii, I have been impressed with the popularity of classical music in Japan. The concert halls are indeed outstanding, and I myself plan to fly to Tokyo to attend a concert at the Bunkamura Orchard Hall this fall.
Nobuyuki has sold out concert after concert in Japan. I think he has contributed a great deal to drawing audience to classical music. I think he deserves more credit than you give him in this blog post, but thanks for your article just the same.
Yes, I posted Nobuyuki Tsujii article today!
