About this gig

Koto is a traditional Japanese instrument, it has 13 strings and can usually only play pentatonic scales.

Please make sure your music is playable (you can send me a message before ordering a gig if you have any doubt or question!)


It is a great addition to any traditional japanese inspired music!

I have a master's degree in japanese language and culture, specializing in japanese music. As part of my curriculum, I spent over a year in Japan, where I learnt how to play koto and shamisen. Since then, I have been playing those instruments in an orchestra and in different ensembles. I now have 7 years of experience with koto, and play traditional pieces as well as contemporary ones. I am also a multi-instrumentalist (piano, viola, etc.) and have a bachelor's degree in Musicology.
