[Environment for participants to continue hands-on experience (practice) of traditional performing arts] We will conduct a questionnaire after the course ends, and if there are a large number of participants who want to continue learning as a hobby, we will voluntarily continue holding classes in our association.

Profile
[Ohayashi Project]
our association is concerned about the declining Japanese music industry due to the fixed audience and aging of the audience, as well as the decrease in performances, and is working to attract new fans of traditional performing arts.
The group's main activity is performing music in collaboration with Japanese and Western music, and has performed about 20 independent performances since its establishment in 2010.
In addition to performances, there are workshops and hands-on classes for students and adults.
