Background

“Zoorasian Brass meets TSO” is a groundbreaking family-oriented concert series that has redefined the “first orchestra experience” for children in Japan. Launched in 2007, this collaboration between the Tokyo Symphony Orchestra (TSO) and Zoorasian Brass—a popular brass quintet whose members perform in high-quality animal costumes like the Indian Lion and Polar Bear—aims to make classical music accessible to all ages. Unlike traditional recitals, these performances are specifically designed for “age 0 and up,” allowing families with infants to enjoy a world-class symphony hall without the stress of strict concert etiquette.

The 2026 edition, held on April 29 (Showwa Day), features a playful and educational program conducted by Hiroyuki Mito (appearing alongside the Zoorasian conductor, Okapi). The repertoire is a curated mix of light classical favorites and interactive segments, such as Leroy Anderson’s Bugler’s Holiday and the unique Brass DE Radio Calisthenics. By blending top-tier symphonic artistry with the whimsical storytelling of the “animal musicians,” the concert fosters a “borderless” musical environment where children are encouraged to engage with the instruments and sounds in a way that is both entertaining and culturally enriching.
