players of all levels, Koto and Shamisen players are invited

concerts as well as private lessons. While we will again have
an emphasis on using the Shakuhachi in "Music Therapy" as a
healing tool, we will also have an additional focus this year
on ji-nashi Shakuhachi construction since it was such a big
hit last year! Our instructor, Jon Shingetsu Kypros, creates
his livelihood by making ji-nashi Shakuhachi. Please check
the Shakuhachi Camp information tab on this website [www.nyogetsu.com] for more
camp info. Instructors will be Kurahashi Yoshio Sensei, the
