Hello! I'm Nao.

I've liked going to festivals since I was small, and as I would join the adults I had many opportunities to come into contact with traditional Japanese musical instruments.

However, these days Western instruments like piano and guitar are the most commonplace.The number of people who have any experience with traditional Japanese instruments is relatively low. I agree with people who think so.

However!

If you have even a bit of interest, or want a new hobby revolving around traditional Japanese instruments, join with me and let's enjoy this together!

Profile

At the age of 3 I was captivated by my locality's "Lion Dance" and began the Japanese drum, followed by the Tsugaru shamisen at the age of 11, followed by the Japanese bamboo flute at the age of 20.

For 3 years beginning in 2011, I was a member of an Osaka-based traditional Japanese instrument group which was active all over Japan. I continued studying the Japanese drum, Tsugaru shamisen and Japanese bamboo flute while playing with many Japanese and European musicians throughout Japan.

Went independent in 2015

In 2017 I changed my base of operations to Kyoto, where I was a member of a Kansai-based traditional Japanese instrument group called “Higashi [Azuma]”. In August of the same year we were the first official Asian act at the massive Burning Man Festival in Nevada, USA.

In 2018 I performed in Naples and Florence, Italy. I was also a special instructor for a taiko group there.

In 2020 I appeared in a Japanese drum performance in the movie "Moeyo Ken".
