00:28I have musical instruments from all over the world.
00:30I pick up various things like
00:32the Sheng from China.
00:34The Korra from Africa,
00:36from Nigeria.
00:38Charango, which is from Peru.
00:40I have a Santor from India.
00:42Balalaika from Russia.
00:44And a Napa from Russia.
00:46Oh, and I have a little whistle from New Zealand as well.
00:48A Maori whistle as well.
00:50At least
00:5250, 60 different things.
00:54Yeah, yeah.
00:56I can't!
00:58Do you have any music in Japan?
01:00I don't know.
01:02I don't know.
01:04I don't know.
01:05What is this?
01:06I don't know.
01:07It's a Taishou Goto.
01:08It's a modern instrument.
01:10It's a button and a string.
01:12It's traditional Japanese instruments.
01:14Why do you want this Taishou Goto?
01:18Very, very long time ago,
01:22on a keyboard,
01:24there was a KOTO sound
01:26on my keyboard at school.
01:28It was not a good recreation
01:30of the real KOTO,
01:32but it still sounded so beautiful.
01:34And I would really like
01:36to be able to find a real one
01:38that I can play.
01:40the beautiful things that Japan has.
01:42Oh, a keyboard or a piano
01:44are all the people who play.
01:45But I'm really excited about the music style.
01:47Well, the guitar style is also great.
01:48I want to get it!
01:50This show is a great show.
01:52It's a great show.
01:54Would you like to play with the music?
01:57Yeah, sure.
02:00So are you here in Kyoto?
02:25Why are you here in Kyoto?
02:27I'm going to be looking at some traditional music shops, some ethnic music shops here, in search of some tai shou goto.
02:36Okay, let's go.
02:46Is it polite to whistle in my mouth? Is it okay to whistle in school?
02:49It's like music.
02:51There's music everywhere!
03:15I can't wait.
03:51It's Arabic.
03:52Music from South America.
03:54There's a lot of people in the world.
03:58This is a small one.
04:01I've seen this one.
04:03It's good. It's good.
04:04Do you know where I might find tai shou goto?
04:07Ah, yes.
04:08I don't know where I might find tai shou goto.
04:10I don't know where I might find tai shou goto.
04:12Yes, I don't know where I might find tai shou goto.
04:17I'm looking for Japanese traditional instruments.
04:21Ah, yes.

04:49It's so hard.
04:53It's amazing.
04:54Why can't it be?
04:56It's not even when I can teach anymore.
04:59I can't teach anymore.
05:00Why can't it be?
05:02It's lovely.
05:03So you just improvise?
05:05Yes, yeah, yeah.
05:06I just sort of made it for quite a long.
05:09Yeah, I just made it for quite a long.

05:20Yes! Have you got an ear?
05:22Have you? Could I try?
05:44何だよあの写真。
06:06And I loved learning new instruments. I loved the different sounds that things make. So I kept going, kept adding more and more instruments.
06:16I started playing the violin when I was five. I got it for my fifth birthday. Guitar when I was nine. Ukulele when I was twelve. Keyboard, piano when I was twelve.
06:29I play a few notes on the trumpet. Same. Trombone, a cello, harp, accordion. I play a lot of instruments. I play maybe thirty different instruments.
