Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 вер 2024
- This year's spring concert premiered on May 20th and served as recital for Mitsuki Dazai's koto students. These pieces were all prerecorded, but to give it the feel of a live concert, each song was recorded in a single take with no edits. Everyone worked really hard and did a great job. We're proud to share their music with our friends, family, and people all over the world.
