Shakuhachi meets Pena

It is a maiden collaboration of traditional music between the two nations, India and Japan.

It was performed at "The Giving Tree", Sangaiprou, Imphal West on 28 November 2016.

It was organised by the "Laihui" in collaboration with the "Art Heals Trust, Imphal, Manipur" and "The Japan Foundation, New Delhi".

[2] Mangka Mayanglambam said that it took her 5 days in learning the Japanese lullaby "Komori Uta" completely.

Both Hiromu and Mangka concluded that the tonal vibrations of "Komori Uta", the Japanese lullaby were very much similar to the Meitei language lullaby named "Tha Tha Thabungton".
