Left Coast Chamber Ensemble has announced its 2019-20 season opener, “Changing and Unchanging Things” will take place on Oct. 5 and 6 in San Francisco and Berkeley, California, respectively.

The concert aims to explore and celebrate Japanese culture and will feature the world premiere“Sharaku Unframed,” a micro opera by Hiroya Miura, which explores the mysteries surrounding 18th century Japanese artist Toshusai Sharaku. Soprano Nikki Einfeld and baritone Daniel Cilli will perform on the concert.

“Miura is a remarkable musician – extremely open and expressive, and interested in all forms of music making. His new micro-opera reflects the range of his significant gift,” said Kurt Rohde, LCCE Artistic Advisor in a press release. “Since Hiroya is from Japan, and his topic (the woodblock artist Sharaku) comes from Japanese culture, it seemed that a program built upon the impact of Asian and Southeast Asian music was the obvious place to build the rest of the program.”
