Delight and relax in the soothing sounds of holiday music played on a koto harp at the Portland Japanese Garden.

Mitsuki Dazai of Oregon Koto-Kai is a koto master who is a friend of the Garden and frequently plays for our guests. Dazai is now opening another door by playing unusually beautiful and peaceful holiday music.

While koto music plays, ikebana will be demonstrated by Nana Bellerud and famous Japanese wintry stories will be read aloud. We hope this one-of-a-kind concert will be the start of a beautiful holiday tradition during this festive time.
