I went to the harp concert XVI held at Harmony Hall Fukui last week.
I was fascinated completely to harp in the previous interview at Aoyama harp.
This time, it was the harp concert. Moreover five Grand harps were also in line.
The first part, they played on the Grand harps, the Saul harps and the Irish harps.
In the second part, they played on the harps with male choir Golden Age Fukui.
I felt wonderful performance of the harps and chorus.

It's getting very warm these days and I think Okinawan music is good for this weather.
There is a traditional looking restaurant of Okinawan cuisine near Fukui station, on Kinanosho-Dori street.
The restaurant's name is "Paikaji (meaning south wind)", and the Okinawan music live shows are often held there.
Here I put a short clip of rare pieces from such a show.
Inami, the second daughter of Paikaji family, is singing a well-known gospel song "Amazing Grace" in the style of Okinawan traditional music.
Full length videos from their stage will be uploaded soon.
