23rd Fūin Kai Concert
The 23rd Fuke Fūin Kai 普化風韻会 (“Elegant Fuke Gathering”) was held in Kōbe on June 22nd in Kōbe. 44 players were assembled and we played from 10am to 5pm. It is always an intense experience. After the concert we had a relaxing time sharing some food and wine meeting old and new Shakuhachi friends. I played the piece Kyūshū Reibo 九州鈴慕 on a 2.9 Shakuhachi made by Ota Tekizan 太田笛山.
