Welcome to the website of the Zenbu Shakuhachi Foundationi
On Saturday 2 and Sunday 3 November, Jean-François Lagrost will give a two-day workshop on the shakuhachi music of the Japanese Tozan school. 
Jean-François Lagrost began studying shakuhachi in 2000 with Sōzan Kariya, one of the most important representatives of the Tozan school. Mitsuko Nakao, the granddaughter of the school’s founder, awarded him the highest honor in the world of shakuhachi in 2014, the title of Dai-Shihan (Grandmaster).
This workshop will be held at Driebergen, the Netherlands on Saturday from 13:00 to 18:00 and on Sunday from 10:00 to 18:00. Jean François teaches the pieces: Asakaze, Iwashimizu, Mine no Tsuki and Yamagara for shakuhachi duo. It is expected that the participants are familiar with the Tosan notation (information about this is included in the documents that are sent).
Costs €95.00 for the whole weekend (Saturday only: €45.00, Sunday only €55.00.) Registration via info@zenbushakuhachi.org
The foundation aims to give greater publicity to the shakuhachi, a traditional Japanese bamboo flute, and to promote use of the shakuhachi in the performing arts in the Netherlands and Belgium.
