My DH needs to be in Japan in next 3 weeks as per COE Japan. So at the end of this month we'll be moving to India and from there my DH will go to Tokyo, Japan for his next assignment. My son and I will be relocating to India. No long term plans made yet.

okonomi;648968Yes there is.
Koto is a musical instrument, sort of like Veena, but flat, and is laid on one knee while playing.
There are long improvisations (aalab's) in Koto tradition, and it is best listened to eyes closed. The music also has counts (tala's) and recursive stacking of beats to get applause from the audience.
The empress is good at it. When she went to India, She spent more time in Chennai Kalashetra to listen to the girls play the veena.


Is that Siri posting the above comment? LOL

If I was not familiar with Oko's usual antics in this forum, I would have thought he/she was trolling. But then maybe she is. In any case, I would like to get some of whatever she is smoking.
