    It was my first time experiencing Japanese traditional music performance, and I can’t describe it as anything less than spectacular and truly enjoyable! The sound of the Koto was mesmerizing and deeply moving. I will definitely attend another concert in the future! Thank you for such incredible musical journey!

    This was my first time attending a Japanese cultural concert, and it was just amazing! I had the opportunity to learn more about their rich musical traditions and instruments. I enjoyed hearing Ms. Rie Asai's story about how she composed her music and performed internationally. The artists were great, and it was an awesome experience!

    It was a wonderful stage where you could enjoy traditional Japanese musical instruments right in front of your eyes. The lines of the play are in English, so I think people from overseas can enjoy it in an easy-to-understand way. In the second half, I actually had the opportunity to play the koto and shamisen. The kids danced and played, and it was really cute!

  • I was moved by the experience that can only be had here.

    It was an amazing experience at Nagoya Castle! I really enjoyed the performance of the traditional Japanese instrument, Koto. The sound was so beautiful and touching. I could truly feel the culture and stories of Japan, which was very moving. I also appreciate how the performers put so much effort into explaining everything in English.

    It was so fascinating, mysterious and inspiring! I was able to observe ancient Japanese culture close by, and also had the opportunity to experience it myself, which was a valuable experience that I could not do anywhere else. It was an artistic and mesmerizing time, not only for tradition but also for modernity. Recommended for visitors to Japan.
