Enjoy The Sounds Of Shakuhachi

Want to enjoy traditional Japanese culture during your stay in Niseko? Then why not take in the extraordinary sounds of the Japanese flute at the Shakuhachi Bamboo Flute Lesson and Performance on this January and February in Niseko.

Audience members at the free shakuhachi recital, which will be held at Sekka Lab in Kutchan, will be treated to the artistry of famed Hokkaido shakuhachi master, Seizan Nakajima. International visitors, as well as locals, are invited to attend the event to all enjoy the sounds of the Japanese flute together.

Seizan Nakajima is excited about the prospect of more people from all around the world becoming interested in the shakuhachi. There will also be English music scores available.
