International Festival & Summer School PIANO WEEK returns to Tokyo for the second time in the spring of 2020. Headed by British concert pianist Samantha Ward (founder and artistic director) and Polish concert pianist Maciej Raginia (creative director), the festival is full of high calibre performances from the in-house team of concert pianists and is based at Symphony Salon, right in the heart of the city. Experience Tokyo at its finest, just five minutes away from Otemachi, the very centre of Tokyo's subway network. You will be able to enjoy fine restaurants and cafes, as well as tourist attractions such as Kiba park with many museums, temples and shrines a stone’s throw away. Other international residencies in 2020 include Weston Rhyn (UK), Rugby (UK), Foligno (Italy) and Online Edition (Worldwide).
