JVC International Cooperation Concert 2018 25th Anniversary Osaka Performance is Classic music event held in Japan.
We are very happy to inform you that JVC 2018 concerts will be held in Tokyo on Saturday, December 1st, and in Osaka on Saturday, December 8th. This year, we are approaching the finale of the concerts. The JVC benefit concerts have been held for 29 years in Tokyo since 1989 and for 24 years in Osaka since 1994. Although the sale of the tickets has been satisfactory, we finally decided to put an end to the concerts. This is because of the difficulties in maintaining a sustainable operation and a positive balance of income and expenditure. The final concerts in 2018 will invite the conductor Jos van Veldhoven, the greatest treasure of early music in the Netherlands. The profits from both concerts in Tokyo and Osaka will help improving the lives of people in our 11 project countries.
