At the Podenhaus in the heart of Bad Aussee, the audience can expect a Japanese traditional concert with Masato Shibata, a young master of the Tsugaru-Shamisen. He continues the centuries-old tradition of this expressive Japanese string art with great dedication.
With great virtuosity, the young Tsugaru Shamisen player Masato Shibata brings the traditional Japanese string art into the present and opens new sonic paths for it.
