MIYAVI x Hiromitsu Agatsuma x Kodo

For the grand finale of EC 2022, Kodo will be joined by two special guests: guitarist MIYAVI, making his EC debut; and shamisen player Hiromitsu Agatsuma, making his third appearance at EC. After appearing together at MIYAVI’s 2021 concert at Kyoto’s Kiyomizu-dera Temple, these three international artists will reunite at EC for their next, eagerly-awaited collaboration.

The sound of guitar, Tsugaru shamisen, and taiko are going to resonate around the globe when we gather to connect with the world on Sado Island this summer. May the sound bring everyone together, in person and in spirit.

“Shiver” Outdoor Cinema Screening & Talk Show

Film director Toshiaki Toyoda is a wizard: he took a catalog of music by bold contemporary musician Koshiro Hino and turned it into a spellbinding cinematic work, filmed entirely on Sado Island. The film features the Kodo ensemble, in a starring role for the first time, conjuring a rousing world of sound and imagery. We are excited to screen “Shiver” outdoors at EC 2022, coupled with a talk show with Toyoda, Hino, and Kodo, and a live performance by Kodo’s Kenta Nakagome and Yuta Sumiyoshi.
Immerse yourself in the world of “Shiver” in the perfect setting—on a summer’s night, under the stars by the sea, here on Sado Island.
