Kodo Ensemble Leadership Changeover

Tomohiro Mitome has been our dedicated Ensemble Leader since April 2012 and he has decided to step down from the position at the end of his leadership term on Dec. 31, 2015. He will continue to perform with Kodo and teach at the Kodo Apprentice Centre.

From Jan. 1, 2016, our current Deputy Ensemble Leader Yuichiro Funabashi will assume the position of Ensemble Leader. A new Deputy Ensemble Leader will not be appointed.

We will share salutations from Tomohiro Mitome and Yuichiro Funabashi on our website in December.
