The aim of this discussion forum is to highten awareness of shakuhachi players in Europe, our where-abouts, creative activities and focus. With this list we would be able to discuss more locally any aspect of the shakuhachi and being a shakuhachi player or just a lover of the sounds. We would, by being more aware of each other, be able to reommend students to qualified teachers and advertise to each other of events and performances. We would be able to collaborate for future shakuhachi events in Europe.
