Big fun in Kyōto !

Yesterday, there was a huge open air party in the Tadasu Wonderland forest in Kyōto. Many attractions for a large public : concerts, outdoor cafes and restaurants, a bicycle workshop and more than 100 stores selling clothes, food or hand made goods.



And that was also the nose flute paradise! Nose flutes to buy, nose flute to play. The Nihon Hanabue Kyokai (Japanese Nose Flute Association) had organised a gathering. Mister Tanioka (谷岡淳さん), aka Hanabue114 on YouTube, was there and taught how to play to some people, and was responsible for the On-Lak hanabue booth.

Even the famous japanese singer Keizo Nakanishi (中西圭三さん) joined the group and played the hanabue and the musical saw!
