Tamamo Ange Saitoh

In 2004, she was chosen as the youngest ever to play in International Soloists series in Leipzig, Germany. Saito made a recital debut in All Bach Program and she was described as “Especially, her playing chaconne is a masterpiece” by BACH ARCHIV (the highest research institute of Bach). As Mr. Heribert Beissel (honorary conductor of Hamburg orchestra) appreciated her, she played as a soloist in Hamburg, Hannover, Bonn, etc., and gained much popularity. Playing as a soloist at the international music festival in Amsterdam, the Bach concert tour in Austria and Slovakia, she received attention in Europe. She also played chaconne in front of the pyramid in the memorial concert of diplomatic relations between Egypt and Japan. In 2008, she launched RYU project with famous pianist Yves Henry, and has been developing a new field of classic music, borrowing other ideas like Zen spirit. In 2010, She is going to give a concert tour titled “Pilgrimage Concert, Miracle Music” in Japan.

translated by TEDxSeeds
An astonishing collaboration will be presented between the worldwide violinist, Tamamo Ange Saito and inheritor of the Murasaki-Fujima style in traditional Japanese dance, Shinnosuke Fujima. The two who meet for the first time, begin the show in improvisation with the classic 'Chaconne' by J.S.Bach. The theme is 'transcendence'. Each being the pioneer of music and dance, the two go over every border of ethnicities, religions, gender, time and politics to create a magnum opus of all fields at the Noh stage. She plays with the philosophies of 'everyone makes the harmony, transcending the seeds, the years, the countries and the beliefs', and 'Music transcends everything'. He values the traditions, the formality, and the dignity of the dance; He gracefully enchants the audience with his delicate dance and tempo. This ultimate collaboration, revealed for the first time in the world, can only be seen on TEDxSeeds.
