    I loved that this wasn't just a music experience but also a discussion of the instruments and how music is engrained in Japanese culture. It was honestly fascinating and the music showed such a range. I bought the CD at the end as I was so enamoured. Definitely recommend not only for the music but the insight into Japanese culture

    Perhaps, unlike many other visitors to this show, I was the only one who isn't a casual tourist, but a Tokyo's resident. Yet, it was my first time experiencing traditional Japanese music instruments live. And what's more, it was happening within arm's reach, right in front of me. I must say that the show not only met my expectations (I've read couple of reviews before going), but exceeded them! No reviews or videos on the Internet can convey how great it is live! The skill of musicians is undeniable, their fingers fly over the instruments, and their facial expressions are mesmerising - they are so passionately giving themselves to music that you too become captivated. I was also glad to learn that this is not just a musical, but also an educational show. Especially if this is your first encounter with such music (as it was in my case), it's great to understand what kind of song is being performed, why specifically these instruments are being used, and what exactly the musicians are doing to extract the sound from their instruments! Amazing! I wish I could've stayed for the second show of the evening! Will definitely go again and recommend to everyone I know!

    -- a very nice experience. We learned about the instruments and enjoyed a varied concert, incluing a version of a Nirvana song!

    Great experience! The music was beautifully performed and we got to learn about the instruments and the music they were playing. I would pay more for a longer show so they could play longer pieces, if they ever did that.
