The KOTO Executive Committee
The three members, Satomi Fukami, Chieko Fukunaga, and Nanae Yoshimura, have planned a series of five concerts in the hope that the different fields of koto music, each with its own specialties and musical goals, will allow them to create a concert series with a broader perspective when considering the past and future of the koto. The koto will be introduced from various aspects through colorful works that have been created over the past 80 years.
