Heartwarming time with a sweet guest from Canada who has her own Koto, and a local wooden artist and friends!

Sweet guest from Canada, she is fascinated by Koto and ordered and set it home in Canada, so she should study how to tune it and visited our place. Then she understood immediately how to tune it and read Koto score written in Japanese, and she could learn various playing methods. Good job!

And we have another group of a wooden artist who made a original signboard of Kanade and they also enjoyed their first experience of Koto.
They were divided into two rooms for playing Koto, and the two groups experienced tea ceremony together. Special thanks for Ritsuko, who provided support for the Koto experience and an interpreter at the tea ceremony! It was a wonderful meeting full of happiness and smiles. And happy birthday Rara!

Rara! You have very traditional Japanese sprit than usual Japanese!
