Tokyo Minato-ku Akasaka 1-13-1

"This classical music hall is located in Akasaka Ark Hills in Minato Ward, Tokyo. There are two performance halls, the large Main Hall and the smaller Blue Rose hall. Aiming to achieve the most beautiful sound quality in the world, all 2,006 seats in the Main Hall are arranged in terraced rows in what is called ""vineyard style,"" the first time this style has been employed in Japan. Performances by first-rate artists from across the country and the world are held here daily.

When they say Suntory Hall has fantastic acoustics, believe them. Attended an out of box performance of Legeti & Bartok pieces. Loved the experience.
