Tokyo Ensemble

Symphony Orchestras · Japan

music

The Tokyo Ensemble is a chamber orchestra composed of the best Japanese bowed string instruments and if necessary completed with wind instruments. It is one of the few chamber orchestras in the world that can perform without a conductor because, due to intense rehearsals, the ensemble plays like a string quartet. The Tokyo Ensemble is not a full-time institution but operates on a project basis similar to the famous Chamber Orchestra of Europe. Once or twice a year, the members of the Ensemble meet for rehearsal sessions as well as concerts and tours.
