ﾅ@From our survey, we found that most people didn't have any opportunities to be exposed to Japanese musical instruments. I asked seven people some questions. As for the results, two people have been to concerts with Japanese musical instruments. But the other people have never been to the concerts with them and nobody has ever played them. So none of the people really know about Japanese musical instruments.

Even so, everyone said that Japanese musical instruments are important Japanese traditions. Because they are unique. So everyone except one person wants to know about them. In order that many people may know about them, we will investigate into their histories, the way of making instruments, the way of playing them and so on.
