HINAMATSURIFREE 2019 PROGRAM
Japan Cultural Development was organized under JBSD to promote a friendship between U.S. and Japan after the local Japan community’s involvement in the Grand Bargain to save the city of Detroit and the Detroit Institute of Arts. Japan Cultural Development focuses on culture, arts and education in the U.S. and Japan.
JCD is very thankful for the great support from "JSD Women's Club".

Ms. Ishigure is a New York-based musician who has been playing Koto (Japanese horizontal harp) and Shamisen (three stringed Japanese guitar) professionally for more than 25 years across the U.S. and internationally.

Neo Japanesque is a Nagoya, Japan-based band who performs across Japan, Asia and the U.S. The five-member band includes Japanese traditional instruments such as the taiko (drum), shakuhachi (bamboo vertical flute) and shinobu (bamboo flute), and western instruments such as the bass, keyboard, and drums. They play a wide range of music from their own original songs to well-known scores of Japanese and Western-fused music. Their performances evoke the feeling of Japanese scenery and culture and their fusion melodies bridge not only Japan and Detroit, but history with today.
