It looks like the “Nishinomiya Municipal Joint Music Concert” will be discontinued starting this year.

Quoted from the Nishinomiya City Board of Education

This notice appeared on the websites of elementary schools in Nishinomiya…

The “Joint Music Concert” was a school event held every July at Amity Hall, with fourth-grade students from all 42 schools in the city taking part.

Why Is It Being Discontinued?

  • To secure enough class hours
  • Heatstroke prevention
  • Scheduling and curriculum planning considerations at each school

It seems they also considered moving it to June, but there apparently wouldn’t be enough time for practice.

音楽会の代わりにやってほしい行事は?

Finally

Since this music concert continued for 70 years, this will likely be sad news for those who spent their elementary school years in Nishinomiya. Perhaps it’s just a sign of the times.
