Welcome to my website.
Here you can listen to my music, learn about upcoming and recent concerts and contact me about lessons.

During these strange and trying times, I wanted to share Maki Ota's and Tadashi Tajima's performance of 'From The Mountain of Eternal Peace' , a set of 4 Waka poems by Dogen, written especially for the 30th Takefu International Music Festival last year, 2019. Sung in Japanese with English translation projected.

Steven Heine was gracious enough to allow me to post his translations.
Please check out more wonderful English translations of Dogen's poems
