Nobuyuki Tsujii live in Takasaki

Experience Nobuyuki Tsujii live on August 10th

Nobuyuki Tsujii, a Japanese classical pianist, will perform at Takasaki City Theatre on August 10, 2026. Tsujii is renowned for his technically brilliant and emotionally expressive interpretations, particularly of Romantic-era composers like Chopin and Rachmaninoff. He gained international recognition after jointly winning the gold medal at the 2009 Van Cliburn International Piano Competition – a remarkable achievement as he is blind and performs entirely from memory. His playing is often described as possessing both power and sensitivity, showcasing a unique musical voice.

Takasaki City Theatre, opened in 1973, serves as a central cultural hub for Takasaki city in Gunma Prefecture.

It underwent significant renovations in 2017 to modernize facilities while preserving its original architectural character.
