Their productions use only a piano or small-scale ensemble and a small number of singers.\nOpera ‘ Gauche the Cellist’\nThis is a opera that based on a children’s story by Kenji Miyazawa宮澤賢治\, a well-known writer in modern Japan. Their adaptation is unique in singing many lines straight from the original wording of his story to construct a great drama. Six performers play not only six characters; Gauche\, Band Master\, Cat\, Cuckoo\, Little Raccoon and Mother rat\, but also storytellers and chorus. The story is about a young musician who grows through his friendship with animals while he develops his musical skills. This approachable opera has an equal appeal to children and adult.
