I can't believe the timbre of the koto and violin fit so well. - It was held at a facility called Midori no Yakata in a corner of Umekoji Park. The tones of the koto and violin met to create a new and pleasant harmony. There were anime theme songs and game music, and it was a concert that people could enjoy. There was also a koto experience corner, and it was very good to see foreigners who were new to the craft looking happy.

Best Location and Japanese Culture Experience - A duo performance of koto and violin in a Japanese-style room overlooking the garden. There was also a musical instrument experience and I enjoyed it for 60 minutes. We also had matcha and sweets and had a relaxing and enjoyable time ♪

Koto experience - 「琴」の演奏と体験の両方を楽しめる貴重なイベントです。初めて参加しましたが、基本的な知識も学べて良いです。体験後には琴の魅力が分かり、質問もできるので理解が深まりました。 It has been a unique and interesting event to see and taste koto. Ideal for beginners as foreign visitors or I have learned the basics and had a couple of time to ask too! maybe it will be a good experience even if it rains in Kyoto A rare and interesting event where you can watch and try playing the koto with a professional koto player. Great for beginners—you can learn the basics and deepen your understanding by asking questions.

美しい音色と景色の贅沢時間♪ - 美しい景色を背景に、お琴とバイオリンの音色が溶け合うひとときは、本当に贅沢で心に残る1時間でした。演奏だけでなく、温かなスタッフの皆さまに囲まれてお琴を実際に体験させていただけたことも、とても貴重で印象的でした。 最後にはお抹茶までいただき、日本の美しい文化とおもてなしの心を全身で感じられる素晴らしい時間でした♪ Amidst a breathtaking backdrop, the harmony of the koto and violin created a truly luxurious and unforgettable hour. Not only did I enjoy the performance, but I was also warmly welcomed by the staff and had the rare opportunity to try playing the koto myself, an experience both precious and memorable. To finish, I was served matcha, making it a wonderful time filled with Japan’s beautiful culture and heartfelt hospitality.

Unforgettable Japanese Music and Matcha Experience - The collaboration between the traditional Japanese koto and the Western violin was absolutely wonderful.Drinking matcha while listening to beautiful music created an unforgettable memory of Japan. Personally, being able to experience playing the koto, not just the matcha ceremony, was incredibly special.I believe this is something you can only experience here. I’d love to visit again with my family.
