Such beautiful sounds from the classic Japanese instruments, the musicians were incredibly talented and you even learn some history about the songs and instruments!

This is a great show to introduce yourself to Japanese music. I went to a traditional folk concert in South Korea and even tho it was great I didn't understand anything at the end of the show. In this case, the music wasn't 100% traditional but they explained the instruments, their use, how they work, and played pieces that a person from the West can digest. If you are a connoisseur of Japanese folk music this show is not for you.

I was looking for a more traditional Japan activity and came across this. To my luck one of their shows lined up with my trip. The show was a good mix of entertaining music and historical education on the instruments. I enjoyed it thoroughly and would recommend it to anyone looking for something unique to do while in Tokyo.

I never thought I would enjoy traditional music so much. Thank you for the show, it's my 2nd time there and will be waiting for the next one 😀

This is the best way to experience traditional Japanese music. They were not only performing music professionally but also introducing the history and characters of each instrument.

Summary: Amazing experience!! Wholeheartedly recommend. In a bit more detail: We booked the Zakuro Show when we were planning all of our Tokyo activities of our Japan trip and I am so so happy that we did. The show only takes one hour (sadly), but it is filled to the brim with interesting information (e.g. origin of the various instruments, how they are played, what kind of sounds they’re able to make) and breathtakingly beautiful music - we left there wanting more. At the time of seeing the show (I say that because I could honestly see them playing in front of huge crowds - they’re that good!), the show was organised in a relatively small venue (15-20 seats), but I personally think that added to the experience. Nothing but respect and thanks to everyone involved for a lovely intro to the world of traditional Japanese music <3.

Amazing show and display of traditional Japanese music. I loved the explanations of the instruments and the music was so beautiful. I think it's a must for anyone visiting Japan!

It was beautiful and very informative about Japanese music and the instruments. They explained in English and Japanese the history of the instruments and exampled them.

Excellent experience! The music was beautiful. And there were explanations about the musical instruments and tunes between the performances. Thanks to the translator, you can understand everything even if you don`t speak Japanese.

It was incredible! Awesome performance! Thanks to all your team for the atmosphere! it's great to get know about Japanese traditional music in such an easy and pleasant environment.

It was a wonderful concert and experience! It was really a pleasure to hear the misic and to know about japanese traditional music instruments. Moreover, the performera wear traditional kimono, so the scene in general is very beautiful. The hall is not big, so you can watch the artists and instrument right before your eyes.

A wonderful exploration of traditional Japanese music culture. Found through a Google search when looking for live, traditional music (there were not a lot of other hits). Small venue (which is awesome) that lets you be right up on musicians. Excellent segues into each of the pieces, in which the musician explains the origins of their instrument (mostly thru excellent English interpretation). Was smiling and sitting on the edge of my chair the entire performance.

We really enjoyed the show and all the explanations the musica s fave to us about the instruments. The room was a little bit cold but It was a good show and we also take a picture with the musicians at the end.

One of the best things we did in our Japan's trip. Absolutely amazing music. We were so happy about the show that we also bought a cd from them and took photos with the artists. Do not miss this or you will regret it.

A lovely way to experience authentic Japanese culture in an intimate setting. A wonderful music performance with interesting information about the instruments and culture.
