From among the many performances deeply etched in her memory, we have selected performances of Debussy's works, including the "Cello Sonata" in 1985 (the 6th festival) with the great master Fournier, the "Fantasy" in 1993 (the 14th festival) for the first performance in Japan, and the solo work in 2018 (the 39th festival).
