“Amaterasu” will return for encore performances in May this year\u00a0at Osaka’s Shochiku-za Theatre. We started off our practice for 2015\u00a0by spending a couple of days rehearsing for this collaboration.<\/p>\n

We have been given another opportunity to tackle this programme so\u00a0soon after the last “Amaterasu” performances in 2013. We will focus\u00a0on our\u00a0musical instruments, our bodies, and our technique, so that we can\u00a0create a deeper quality of sound that is even more feel-good to our audiences.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I\u00a0hope you are looking\u00a0forward to the upcoming performances in May!<\/p>\n
