Oregon Koto-Kai at Portland Japanese Garden

Enjoy this video directed by filmmaker Katya Gimro, in which Oregon Koto-Kai performs in Portland Japanese Garden during the Garden's O-Shogatsu (New Year) celebration.
From director Katya Gimro:
"Japanese Gardens are a time-honored tradition dating back more than a millennium. The tradition has been kept alive by artisans across time and space, spreading beyond Japan to the rest of the world. Portland Japanese Garden is one of the most ideal Japanese gardens outside of Japan. In this film, the sounds of the stringed koto instrument narrate a stroll through the lush greenery of the garden."
