Hi Friends,
For your information, my japanese teacher of shamisen (Fumie Hihara) will be attending the Clandestino Festival in Sweden on 9 June 2012.
See the link: http://clandestinofestival.org/2012/en/camkytiwa/
I hope that some of you (Karl ?) will be attending.
Cheers
Frédéric
Cool! It’s on a very short notice though. I’m going to see if I can go there. It depends on the weather because I’m going away on saturday if the weather is good 
oh damn… that would’ve been awesome… and even close to me… If there was more time to prepare i would consider
I enjoyed watching the footage of the group, It’s really nice to see (almost moving/touching) a Chinese cultural instrument combined with a Japanese cultural instrument. As you may know, Most Chinese despise Japan, and famous Japanese people have to be careful when doing business in China, as it can be frowned upon in Japan, and ruin their reputation there.
Thus, it’s really nice to see the two cultures connect in music. 
I’d certainly go if my jetpack wasn’t on the blink!
