Taishokgoto Osaka Koto Senshukai
MATSUI Masao
- Vice-chair
As the third generation of “Matsui Gakki Store” in Higashi-Osaka, which has been in business for 88 years, he is dedicated to passing on the culture of Japanese musical instruments. He has been learning the shamisen, Japanese drum, and taishogoto for many years, and he is planning to hold a “Taishogoto Orchestra” at the Expo in May, taking advantage of the personal connections he has cultivated through the various instruments. Backed by shamisen, Japanese drum, and Japanese folk singers, the Expo site will be transformed into a Bon Odori-like stage.
A Taishogoto instructor I know has been working for many years to spread the wonderfulness of the Taishogoto to Mongolia. Since I was given the opportunity to perform on the stage at the Expo, I would like to further promote the appeal of the Japanese-born Taishogoto to the rest of the world.
