A jazzy way to kick off the new year
For those who want to jazz up the new year in style, the Cerulean Tower Tokyu Hotel is offering a chic one-night accommodation plan with a jazz live program that will definitely make the customary New Year's hatsumode first shrine visit and fukubukuro lucky-bag hunts go unmissed.
Highlighting the luxurious New Year's Day stay for two at the soaring skyscraper hotel in Shibuya will be a live performance by the jazz-fusion group Aliake at the hotel's nightclub JZ Brat Sound of Tokyo. Led by Japanese traditional shakuhachi master Akihisa Kominato, the band that includes violin, guitar, shakuhachi and taiko Japanese drums, promises a magical night of spectacular fusion music.
