zakka news from tokyo

Have you heard we can listen to classic music with huge speakers at a coffee shop. It’s called Meikyoku kissa and it was popular in the 50’s in Japan. I sometimes go to Meikyoku kissa, LION in Shibuya. This time I listened to ’ pavane pour une infant defunte’ by Joseph-Maurice Ravel. It’s a fantastic place! When you go there, you will agree with me. ■Meikyoku kissa LION
