Japanese Music (3)

this past weekend at the Sakura Japanese Cherry Blossom Festival in VanDusen Gardens ....
the third member of the band plays the koto - it is a Japanese plucked half-tube zither instrument, and the national instrument of Japan. Koto are roughly 180 centimetres in length, and made from Paulownia wood. The most common type uses 13 strings strung over movable bridges used for tuning, Seventeen-string koto are also common. Koto strings are generally plucked using three fingerpicks, worn on the first three fingers of the right hand.
