wow... this brings up alot of different emotions, it's like you can feel the pain that she has when her husband passed away but then there are parts where it seems as though she's thankful... after all "Sanka" is a song of praise... VERY BEAUTIFUL

It`s fascinating in eastern music that "harmony" isn`t a factor in music...melody and rhythm only......in some ways this seems more spiritual and complex....

@subshrub I live in Japan, and play koto.
I think Fukuyama in Hiroshima is where most of the kotos are made, but you can buy it anywhere in Japan so just go anywhere you want

@japonaliya you're excused, douche bag

Fantastic beauty! Can anyone tell me please, what is the best city to buy a Koto? I am visiting Japan in the summer. Thank you!

She is a very excellent musician and composer.

@hoty1957 when playing the koto, there is actually a lot of harmonization. for example, when learning to pluck two strings at once, you do it in harmony eg. 2 and 7, or 3 and 8. (referring to the string numbers)
I don't think it isn't that they don't harmonize, i think it's that the scale in hirajoshi tuning is different and an acquired taste for someone brought up listening to western music. also, if you listen to other eastern music, eg chinese, there scale sounds less alien. ah NoMoreChars

I dont think she is the best. i sawai hikaru is better because he actully composed songs. But sawai tadao is the legend of koto mucisian

Excuse me??? Kazue sensei composes ALL her songs except when she interprets classical pieces or occasionally foreign songs.
Of course, she also keeps her late husband's (Tadao) music alive by playing it as in this piece.
BTW Tadao Sawai is one of the two greatest 20th c. koto composers, the other being Michio Miagi.
Her son, Hikaru, learned everything from his mom... his unique approach is due to his heavy metal influence.
