Sound of “Wa” Concert to Support Eastern Japan in a Spirit of Harmony 2022 in Tokyo
Eleven years after the Great East Japan Earthquake, we held the 2022 Sound of “Wa” Concert to Support Eastern Japan at a premier venue in Tokyo.
We welcomed special guests Yukari Ito and Mie Nakao, two singers who were active in the 1960s version of a popular group known as the Three Daughters. The two, who themselves had been involved in support activities for the disaster-stricken areas, sang passionate songs to express their feelings.
This year's concert theme was Beyond Smiles, and the window display at the Wako specialty store was decorated with photos and illustrations of smiling faces collected from the three prefectures in Tohoku most affected by the disaster.
The stage, too, was filled with smiling faces, inspiring waves of smiles that rippled through the audience.
The Seiko Group undertakes community support activities through music that deepen bonds with people.
