RIYADH — The 'Marvels of Saudi Orchestra' is preparing to continue its dazzling performances in Japan. On the fifth stop of its world tour that already took it to Paris, New York, London, and Mexico, the Saudi team will bring its musical showcase to Tokyo.

As part of displaying Saudi talents on the global stage, the Saudi National Orchestra and Choir will perform along with Japanese bands at the Tokyo Opera City on Nov. 22.
