Musical link to the Paralympics, support message for France vol.1, Mai Tosha and Garen Kitagawa

Hello everyone! ??

Kanazawa is a city where you can enjoy traditional Japanese music played with flute, koto (side-harp), shamisen (three-cord luth) and the like, but also classical music or even jazz! Which is why we wanted to pair up with musicians from Kanazawa to send supporting music videos to the French para sports athletes.

For our first video, we collaborated with flautist Mai Tosha and koto player Garen Kitamura, who played Sakura and Aux Champs Elysees in a traditional machiya house.

We hope that athletes and staff will want to come to Kanazawa even more after seeing this video!

* We will post a “musical bond” series video every two weeks.
