6th MINORI Dulcimer & Autoharp Festival
Miniri D & A Festival

It was fine day which performed Minori Dulcimar & Autoharp Festival in 2007. A fellow of the Teikin-band ran by his car on a highway from Tokyo for one hour. I have taken on a train for one hour from Tokyo Station. Nearby the Minori place we met and after we have eaten lunch, we did GO. This is a Festival for enjoy open stages. It is offered to even all. A participant does the stage, and made jam in a campsite and eats (without strawberry), and talks, they saw openstages and enjoy them. The Autoharpers and the hammer dulcimer/mountain dulcimer bands gathered there. There were some autoharpers who attended for the first time this year.
We, the autoharp.jp, had setup for small autoharp booth this year. It was put on the desk, the Autoharp Quarterly, strings, felts, autoharp CD, the CAG Fail, T-wrench. I had small workshop and I was happy to show my lovery autoharp. We had the visit some new players and a man who loves autoharp from 70's/80's.
