Tokyo Kosei

With a goal of mirroring the thriving professionalism of music in the country, Risso Kosei-kai conceived the Tokyo Kosei Wind Orchestra or TOKWO in 1960. TOKWO was brought about with the assistance of a Japanese Buddhist establishment. Among the most rivalrous groups, a series of concerts were arranged throughout the European Union.

Furmon Hall, a vast auditorium within a school campus, is celebrated as the home of the Tokyo Kosei Wind Orchestra. The venue is home to final stage of a contest masterminded by the All-Japan Band Association or AJBA. The group is responsible for developing the audio track recordings for the nearly 14,000 competition participants.

The Tokyo Kosei Wind Orchestra is reputed as one of the most superior in the field by global audiences. A musical organization established in the United States of America known as the Dallas Wind Symphony (DWS) has been recently looked upon as the number one challenger of the Tokyo Kosei Wind Orchestra. Both groups are highly regarded for producing melodies skillfully.

Douglas Bostock was selected as the Principal Conductor of the Tokyo Kosei Wind Orchestra in January 2000. Frederick Fennell bore this role from 1996 to 2000. Although his penchant may be for a complete symphony musical composition, he has been able to adapt fabulously and has been a frequent guest at performances throughout Japan

Douglas Bostock is purported to be among the most prominent British harmony directors of his generation. Preceding his work with the Tokyo Kosei Wind Orchestra he was affiliated with the Southwest German Philharmonic, Chamber Philharmonic of Bohemia and Munich Symphony Orchestra to name but a few. Bostock is famed for interpreting the classical works of popular British and French composers of the twentieth century.
