Yumi Ito live in Dübendorf

Experience Yumi Ito live on May 7th

Yumi Ito, a Japanese-Swiss composer and pianist, will be performing at Musik & Kulturraum Zwicky Süd in Dübendorf, Switzerland on May 7th, 2027. Ito’s musical style is often described as contemporary classical, frequently incorporating minimalist elements and drawing inspiration from both European and Japanese musical traditions. Her compositions are known for their delicate textures, atmospheric qualities, and focus on subtle harmonic shifts. She often performs solo piano works alongside pieces featuring electronic processing and extended techniques.

Musik & Kulturraum Zwicky Süd is a venue located within the former Swiss Federal Ordnance Factories in Dübendorf, now repurposed as a cultural and creative hub. Originally built during World War II for munitions production, the Zwicky area underwent extensive renovation in the early 2000s. The Musik & Kulturraum specifically occupies a former ammunition storage building – Bunker Zwicky – retaining much of its original industrial architecture. This provides a unique acoustic environment favored by musicians working with experimental or ambient sounds. The space regularly hosts concerts spanning various genres including jazz, experimental music, and contemporary classical performances alongside exhibitions and workshops, serving as a focal point for artistic activity in the region.
