Re: European Shakuhachi Festival: Prague 2010

We order shakuhachi yuu from mejiro just to meet the needs of beginner players. If you intend to buy more flutes, I suggest you talk to them directly.

Re: European Shakuhachi Festival: Prague 2010

Hi everyone,
I'm not a good one to write a full report of the festival we recently had in Prague, but I want to extend my sincere thanks and appreciation to Vlastistav and all the organisers for a truly wonderful event. I had a wonderful time there really, and look forward to future times in this beautiful city and with all these great people.
