Cultural visits (various artists)

Sosuikai

We are able to provide presenters for themed events including corporate clients. As well as entertainers we can organize ladies in Traditional Costume / Kimono and 'Geisha style'. Also to demonstrate origami (paper models), tea ceremony, ikebana etc.

Now and then small- and large-scale children's and adults' groups come from Japan on cultural visits. They present traditional Japanese cultural activities such as tea ceremony (chado), flower arranging (ikebana) and traditional and modern music played on traditional instruments. Groups who visited during 2001/2 were the 20 piece shakuhachi & koto ensemble of Yoshio Hiratsuka and the Korei Hogakukai Foundation with 20 ikebana and tea ceremony masters, Japanese choir Nigawa Choeur Amitie, the koto, shamisen and shakuhachi ensemble Sosuikai led by Keiko Horita, Kaze-no-wa — a koto, shakuhachi, shamisen and voice ensemble, and the Kotohira High School Folk and Dance Group amongst others.
