Something Missing?

In Japan’s capital city of thousands years, a classical music palace has been born: Kyoto Concert Hall has been constructed as a part of a commemorative project in 1995, respecting 1200th anniversary of the ancient capital “Heiankyo.” The walkway leading to the main entrance, a tidy arrangement of rust-granite bridge and sculptures forms a sort of Japanese-style garden, and the entrance hall evokes a musical inspiration you are about to enter. In its center, twelve pillars representing the twelve zodiac symbols of ancient Eastern chronology are set at regular intervals, and their rhythmical placement instills a sense of anticipation of the musical intoxication to come.
