Fun experience learning about the Koto and Shamisen. Host is a charming professional musician and was very patient instruction newbies on trying the instrument. He is a master player so do request that he give you a sample of his musical skills.

Beginner-Friendly Japanese Koto Harp Music Lesson in Tokyo
Didn’t have the lesson!
Activity Date: 2023/04/13 | Posted on: 2023/04/14

Ended up at wrong location. So didn’t have my lesson. Had many messages and knew of change of address but patchy wifi meant I didn’t receive all the information - the last one had misleading address details. Am sure it would have been a fabulous experience.

The instructor was very enthusiastic and thorough. We went through several different patterns and played over some festival music, it was easy to follow with a little practise. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience, it was one of the highlights of my holiday

Beginner-Friendly Japanese Koto Harp Music Lesson in Tokyo
Excellent introduction to Koto Harp!
Posted on: 2015/12/21

The teacher was very good, her English was excellent and she explained everything very clearly. With no previous experience I was able to play a tune very quickly and the lesson was structured to allow me to play the tune with additional notes to add further detail / harmony to the melody.

The teacher was very patient and clearly knew her instrument very well; I felt that the lesson was worth every penny and was a unique and memorable experience.
