Aloha! 

Welcome to the morning concert of traditional Japanese instruments. I am so excited about the concert we are going to have here today. The traditional Japanese instruments Ensemble will play and entertain us with their unique music brought from Japan . This is the kind of music perhaps you are not so familiar with before. But I know that you will find them very interesting and beautiful. There are string instruments, flutes and drums in the group. They will produce unique sounds, rhythms and tonality. Let’s enjoy the communication among the players through their instruments. They must be enjoyable and interesting. I hope you will enjoy this opportunity of being exposed to the complex of sounds created by traditional Japanese music instruments played by very talented musicians. Well I really look forward to the concert. Let’s sit back and enjoy the music.

 

Thank you.
