  • Akino Watanabe, an eighth grader who is passionate about bridging Eastern and Western culture through her music, joined her younger sister, first grader Yoshino, on stage at TEDxBeaconStreet to perform traditional music on the koto, a Japanese stringed instrument. Let the Watanabe sisters, along with their koto teacher, Sumie Kaneko, transport you to another time and place with their emotionally stirring recital of "Sakura Fantasy" and "Seven Autumn Flowers." The striking sound of the centuries old instruments conveys intensity, mirrored on the faces of these young musicians whose mastery of the art has led them to perform at Harvard University Kennedy School and Tufts University.
    Akino Watanabe is a kotoist (Japanese harpist) in the eighth grade who is passionate about bridging Eastern and Western culture through her music. Yoshino Watanabe is Akino's younger sister and kotoist, who loves not only koto but also the piano, drawing, clay work, and shadow puppets.

    If your teacher really wanted you to appreciate koto music, she should have asked you guys instead to watch the anime “kono oto tomare.” You might just enjoy listening to koto music. Or even want to learn how to play one. I understand this particular piece might sound boring especially to first time listeners of the instrument, and to gradeschoolers like you.
    Your teacher is right to expose you to different types of music and native musical instruments from diff parts of the world, but maybe this is not the right piece.

    Koto - Japanese Harp. I reckon it's known as Zither in China. Greetings from Great Britain.

      I think technically koto is a zither not a harp (has to do with the relation of the strings vs sound board) and yes it did descend from the guzheng. Very nice video. Beautiful!
