2 & 8 PM

Please join us for a very special appearance of two musical icons. This performance features Yoko Fujimoto, singer of the renowned Kodo ensemble in collaboration with composer, arranger and musical visionary Derek Nakamoto.

Accompanied by Derek Nakamoto on Piano, Yoko sings traditional lullabies from the different Japanese prefectures. Nakamotos dramatic arrangements carry Yoko’s vocals into a musical journey both sweet and bittersweet, adding a timeless feel to this beautiful music that has been handed down from generation to generation.

Tickets are $12 for National Museum members and $15 for non-members. To purchase tickets, please call 213-625-0414 ext 2227, email rsvp@janm.org, or visit the front desk of the museum.
