One of the most radical musicians on the Japanese alternative scene, Tatsuya Yoshida needs no introduction. Whether we are talking about Ruins, who have collaborated with dozens of personalities including Fred Frith, John Zorn, Derek Bailey, and Bill Laswell, or the RuinsZu project (Akropolis 2023), or most recently, last year's thrilling concert by his math rock band Kōenji Hyakkei at Punct. This time, he will perform in a duo with keyboardist Risa Takeda, who is currently attracting the most attention on the Tokyo improvisational scene.

Tatsuya Yoshida & Risa Takeda offer exciting clashes and interplay that develop at breakneck speed. Their music is highly structured, yet completely improvised. Stylistically, it moves freely between contemporary music, progressive rock, classical music, and jazz. Although they are a duo, they manage to overwhelm the audience with the energy and sound power of two large ensembles. They are coming to Prague as part of their first ever European tour.
