Sakura is a song that is sung even in elementary schools in Japan. Therefore, there is no Japanese who cannot sing Sakura. The koto is played like this during big celebrations, New Year's parties, weddings, and so on. When we Japanese hear the sound of the koto, we are reminded of the beautiful scenery of Japan.

Dear Miss Watanabe, I have seen and heard many versions of "Sakura" but yours is the most enchanting. The Koto needs a lot of strength in the fingers but it seems to be very hard to play "soft" on it. But you master it seemingly without effort and paint the picture of that fragile and docile cherry blossom. My thanks for this impressive performance. From germany with great admiration.

Every time I am hiking or walking, I have a song like this in my heart....I can feel it. Amazing that you were able to capture it on video.
Не знаю сможете ли вы перевести это. Но я хочу сказать что я из России, и вовсе никогда не слышал о таком инструменте, но я давно увлекаюсь восточной культурой и особенно японской. Я давно смотрю аниме и случайно наткнулся на аниме про этот инструмент. И он меня очень впечатлил. Я сам музыкант, закончил музыкальную школу, играю на инструментах с 5 лет и невероятно люблю музыку. Но в последнее время мне начало все приедается. И это звучание, этот инструмент меня как будто пробудил. Я услышал нечто новое для себя и завараживающее. Этот инструмент очень красив в звучании и отлично передаёт эмоции музыканта. Я даже захотел научится на нем играть. Мне 19 лет и я надеюсь когда нибудь съездить в Японию и послушать это все в живую

I absolutely love this instrument. My 24/7 nurse caregiver Yuki who helps me with my terminal illness got one for me 2 years ago and I was able to learn it fairly quickly because one since I can't see well I'm able to pick up on stuff like instruments quicker the second reason why is because Yuki has her own Koto. Sometimes when we get together with her family after going to church I often want to play Koto for them but sometimes I feel a little weak to do it on my own so yuuki and I will actually play the same kodo together so that way whatever strings I can't get to due to me being a little weak she plays those parts she does vibrato and tremolo while I do finger picking and she plays the strings that are a little too far for me to reach at times due to weakness. Her family loves watching both of us play together they still wonder how we manage to make it work but we do sometimes she'll bring hers to wherever we're getting together with the rest of the family and her and I will both be playing. Whenever she has to do any care whether it be IV feeding tube change Etc she will play hers and after she's done playing I'm more than calm enough to let her do what she needs to
