Aya Nakamura will sing at the Yellow Pieces Gala at Paris La Défense Arena

The singer will perform on January 23 at the Gala des Cadeaux jaunes, at Paris La Défense Arena, alongside Gims, John Legend and Rosé.

It was a major surprise that France Télévision revealed on Friday. Aya Nakamura will perform at the Yellow Pieces Gala on January 23 at Paris La Défense Arena.

For its third edition, the Yellow Pieces gala is full of stars. This concert, broadcast on January 28 on France 2, will also bring together American artists Katy Perry and John Legend as well as the Frenchman Gims, the Nigerian Burna Boy and the Colombian J Balvin.

K-pop and classical music

The event will also give pride of place to K-pop with the arrival of artists such as Rosé, member of the group BlackpinkJ-Hope of the group BTS, and G-Dragon, leader of the group Big Bang, as announced by the organizers on X.

The hall, with a capacity of 40,000 seats, was full for this concert, with all seat categories sold out.

Classical music will also be in the spotlight during this evening with the presence of the Chinese pianist Lang Lang, the South African soprano Pretty Yende and the French cellist Gautier Capuçon.

Launched in 1989, the Yellow Pieces operation aims to raise money for the Hospital Foundation, in order to improve the conditions of hospitalized children and adolescents.

Aya Nakamura conquered the world with her performance during the opening ceremony of the Paris Olympic Games, with the Republican Guard on the Pont des Arts. But she has been rare on stage and in the media since this coup, only hinting last November that she could release the performance in streaming.
