Keisuke Wakao In Paris

[Machine Translation] The Boston Symphony Orchestra, a longtime favorite of the Japanese people, will tour Japan for the first time in 15 years. Keisuke Wakao, Associate Principal Oboe of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, will perform an all-French program. Keisuke Wakao, who has been the Associate Principal Oboe of the Boston Symphony Orchestra since 1990 and whose works have been released by Nippon Columbia, has taken the opportunity to record representative chamber music works from France, the home of wind instruments. The oboe's unique soft tone, which is close to that of the human voice, gives a different charm to pieces such as Ravel's "Sonatine," which is familiar as a piano piece. The oboe is recognized by Guinness World Records as the most difficult woodwind instrument in the world (the horn is the brass instrument), and you are guaranteed to enjoy its unique sound world!
