European Shakuhachi Summerschool 2009 in Leiden. This year there will be a European shakuhachi summerschool in Leiden, the Netherlands. It will be the first shakuhachi summerschool in Holland and it will be organised by the Dutch Shakuhachi Society KAITO together with the European Shakuhachi Society. The date of the summerschool will be 23, 24, 25 and 26 July. Leiden: 2009 Japanjaar. The summerschool will be in Leiden. Leiden is an old Dutch city, not too far from the coast of the North Sea, with a long past in the history of the Netherlands. It is located not too far from Schiphol, the national airport (about 20 minutes by train) and other important Dutch cities like Amsterdam (30 minutes), The Hague (20 minutes), Rotterdam (30 minutes) and Utrecht (45 minutes). Also there is a long historic connection from Leiden with Japan and Japanese culture. For instance: in Leiden is the Sieboldhuis. This house was the location where Siebold showed his collections of Japanese objects and artefacts as early as 1837 to an interested public. And now, after 150 years, his former house is the location of the first official Japan centre. (http://www.sieboldhuis.org/). (Philipp Franz Balthasar von Siebold (1796 - 1866) was an originally German, later to become Dutch physician; he emerged as the first European to teach Western medicine in Japan and is therefor a wellknown person to most of the Japanese) In Leiden also is the National Museum of Ethnology (http://www.volkenkunde.nl/index.aspx?lang=en) that is famous for its impressive collection of Japanese artefacts and cultural objects. Then there is the University of Leiden: this is the oldest university in the Netherlands. The university was founded in 1575 by Prince William of Orange, leader of the Dutch Revolt in the Eighty Years' War. This year, 2009, is a special "Japan year" in Leiden: because of the special relationship between Leiden and Japan, based on 400 years of trade relations: see http://www.400jaarhandel.nl/ (See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leiden) In Leiden there is also a Japanese Soto Zen Meditation Centre, called
Suiren-Ji The Dutch Shakuhachi Society KAITO. The summerschool will be organised by the Dutch Shakuhachi Society KAITO. This shakuhachi society was started in the 1997 by Kees Kort. Kees Kort:"I started playing the shakuhachi at my age of about 40. I remember: when I was still a little boy about 7 or 8 years of age, I heard the shakuhachi for the first time, and its sound stayed in my head. I was not raised learning to play any musical instrument, but when I was about 17 years old I was jealous of my friends who could play so many instruments. So I decided I wanted to learn to play flutes: especially the sound of the Indian flute I loved very much. Later, when I was nearly 40, I learned where I could purchase a shakuhachi. My first shakuhachi was a wooden one, manufactured by the Japanese Zen On company. From the first moment I had this shakuhachi I felt very enthusiastic about it. I had only a table of grips, so I learned to play each pitch as good as I could. Later I learned that there existed an International shakuhachi society in England. When I became a member I found out that there were books, lesson books to learn to play the shakuhachi. That is how my road to blowing zen started…" After some time I decided to start a Dutch shakuhachi society. To build a kind of organisation, a platform where people who were interested in the shakuhachi could find information and other people with the same interest in the Japanese instrument. From the moment the Dutch Shakuhachi Society KAITO started to exist there were contacts with shakuhachi players from different countries all over the world. So we contacted Yoshikazu Iwamoto, who was living in England. He suggested me to buy shakuhachi made by Tom Deaver. So I did and that is how the contact between Tom Deaver and the Dutch Shakuhachi Society started. He came over to Europe, visited my house (I was still living in Katwijk then, about 15 kilometres from Leiden). I organised small house concerts for friends and interested people. Later a woman from Australia - Vineta Lagzdina was her name, she was born in Lituania - came to visit me and again I organised a small house concert. Location of the summerschool. The summerschool in Leiden will be located in 2 places in the centre of Leiden. First there is the building called "het Leidse Volkshuis". Here will be the registration and all full-group meetings. A second location of the summerschool will be the music school of Leiden, called BplusC. This building is on the Rapenburg, in the centre of Leiden. Here will be the daily workshops and lessons. The teachers. The following teachers will join the 2009 European Shakuhachi Summerschool: "Kurahashi sensei is one of the great living masters of shakuhachi. He has
been very interested in the spread of shakuhachi outside of Japan and travels
to America regularly to perform, teach classes and offer workshops."
