“She did a fantastic job - tell her thanks so much! I will send the film when it's finished so she can see...

“She was an absolutely brilliant koto musician and incredibly professional. She had 402 visitors watch her performances last Saturday which was brilliant! She also had large crowds staying after each of her performances to ask her questions and was very accommodating and helpful. She’s also absolutely lovely and a terrific ambassador for Japanese culture. Thanks for co-ordinating this.
