Concert in Osaka (Japan)

Yasukatsu Oshima will give a concert in Osaka City after an interval of a year on April 11 2009.
The concert will be held at Yamamoto Nohgakudo (Yamamoto Noh Theater), the oldest Noh Theater in Osaka, which is authorized as a Japanese tangible heritage site.
Kanako Hatoma, the young female singer, also born in Yaeyama, will appear as a guest with Yasukatsu Oshima.
At this concert the musicians will perform without any Sound Reinforcement (SR) or Public Address (PA) systems, and they will sing without microphones.

"Kanako Hatoma is a young and brilliantly gifted singer with a strong personality. We have sung together many times since she was in her teens. I would like to sing many island songs with her, such as the duet songs of the Yaeyama Islands.
 I hope you will enjoy our Shimauta concert at the Noh Theater".
Yasukatsu Oshima
