BBC PHILHARMONIC JAPAN TOUR REPORT

Here's a dramatic personal account of the recent BBC Phil tour to Japan by Phill Stoker


Here's a first hand account of the BBC Philharmonic's recent tour to Japan by MN member Phill Stoker....

It only takes a couple of days to settle back into the routine of home, a wonderful wife, three boys, three hens and four fish but this time one week ago I was on a coach on the way to a BBC Philharmonic gig in Yokohama, travelling on the Yokohama Bay Bridge, when Japan suffered it's biggest ever earthquake. It was my fourth visit to that amazing country but this was going to be one to remember. We were five concerts down with five to go on the most slick and harmonious tour I'd been on for ages. There was a real expectation about the trip , all our concerts had sold out months before, mostly because of the combination of a hugely popular, and gifted, Japanese soloist, Nobuyuki Tsujii, and our conductor for the trip Sado Yutaka. We had tried out the programmes in advance on UK audiences and they'd gone down a storm. So far so good.
