Music has no boundaries. (countries, races, ages, genders, religions, social ranks, ....)

Listen to an American guitarist uses a Spanish guitar to play Japanese koto tunes. (performed in Germany)

Muriel Anderson is an internationally famous classical /fingerstyle guitarist from Downers Grove, IL. She was the first lady who won the championship of International finger style guitar competition. It's a lot fun listening to her.

Her All Star Guitar Night concert series brings together some of the world's finest guitar players including Nokie Edwards, Tommy Emmanuel, James Burton, Thom Bresh, Larry Carlton.. just to name a few.

Thanks, Dennis.

Yes, she is very friendly too. I am lucky to know her as a friend and a student.

When I played this clip at home and my wife heard this from the next room. She shouted:"Who is playing Koto?" She played Chinese Harp (Gu Zheng) when she was young. She was fooled. It surely sounds like the real Koto.
