Mieko Miyazaki - The Art of Koto

The koto, a traditional zither, has existed in Japan since the 8th century. This instrument, whose woody textures, transparency and crystalline tones evoke trees, fountains, earth and sky… opens the doors to a musical world that is at once bewildering, vibrant and meditative. Steeped in Japanese tradition, Mieko Miyazaki also introduces us to her own interpretation of the Goldberg Variations on the koto!
