Experience the soothing tones of the marimba, whose warm, woody resonance offers moments of relaxation.
While the marimba is known for its soft sound, its cool, fast-paced playing—unique to percussion instruments—is also a highlight.
Since their junior high and high school years, the marimba duo Misaki Tarui and Sakura Tana have studied classical music and performed together for many years. Percussionist Yusuke Sumiyoshi has now joined them, and they are active as a trio pursuing new sounds.
We have prepared a diverse selection of music to ensure enjoyment for customers of all ages.
Please take your time and enjoy.
