The instructor was very kind and taught us from the basics. Even in a short time, I was able to learn various techniques of the koto and felt the depth of it, experiencing a captivating joy. The casual conversations were also very enjoyable, and I lost track of time while talking. By the way, the instructor is a leading figure who performs at events at Shimogamo Shrine and Heian Shrine.

先生は、とても優しく初歩から指導して下さり、短時間ながら、お琴の色んな技巧を学ぶことができ、奥深さを実感しつつ、やみつきになるような楽しさを感じました。雑談もとても楽しく時間を忘れてお話させていただきました。ちなみに先生は下鴨神社や平安神宮の祭事でも演奏される第一人者です。

Koto Music Lesson For All Ages in Kyoto
A great experience
Activity Date: 2024/06/24 | Posted on: 2024/07/20

Since I arrived early to the appointment, the instructor started the lesson earlier with little preparation needed which was very much appreciated.

The lesson itself was great. Even though English was harder for her, she still communicated well how to play the instrument by demonstrating and giving verbal explanation, which helped me learn quickly. Since I had learned the song she had prepared for the lesson, she was flexible and had two other songs that I could play and I had a great time learning and playing the instrument.

She also gave me small sweets and took the time to talk to me after the lesson. She took the time to accommodate beyond what I had expected from the lesson, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking to learn.
