I had a great time at the Nichiren Temple annual bazaar this year. There was a wonderful Koto performance by the group Marimo-kai. About 5 different koto instruments filled the hall along with a man on the congas and three ladies on flutes. They serenaded us with an assortment of traditional japanese music. The koto (琴 or 箏) is a traditional Japanese stringed musical instrument derived from Chinese zither Guzheng. The koto is the national instrument of Japan. Along with the performance was an incredible flower arrangement display (ikebena) by the Tachibana school students.
