Event features
In this course, participants will do a total of five hands-on sessions from April, culminating in a simple performance presented during the last session. During February and March we will hold a total of four one-day Kotsuzumi experience sessions for those who are unsure whether they will be able to go on to the main course. These sessions will enable would-be participants to have actual contact with the instruments, experience the enjoyment they bring and familiarize themselves with their depth and complexity, encouraging them to then apply for the course starting in April.

A framework enabling participants to continue with hands-on experience (practice) of traditional performing arts
We will conduct a questionnaire at the end of the course, and if a lot of participants wish to continue learning as a hobby, the Ohayashi Project will continue holding classes on an independent basis. For those who wish to have private lessons rather than group lessons, we can offer private lessons by members of the Ohayashi Project, introduce a teacher in a convenient location, etc.
