Seattle Japanese Garden Gate House Ground Opening

I went with my friend to take video of her Koto performance for Gate House Ground Opening at Seattle Japanese Garden on May 4th. I posted 4YouTube Videos and 3 videos show complete Koto performance. Taiko performance was nice and posted two short ones combined.
My friend and Master Takamura made excellent Koto performances.

Seattle Cherry Blossom Festival

Cherry Blossom and Japanese Culture Festival was held last month. I went to take video of my friend's Koto performance on April 19th. I took video of Japanese traditional Dancing and music performance. A month later, I organized my video and I posted three YouTube Videos. I have more opportunities to listen Japanese traditional music now than when I lived in Japan.
