Teachers in Tokyo?

Woodlandjustin - 11-5-2007 at 04:16 AM

Hi everyone
I am thinking about starting to learn oud. I live in Tokyo. Does anyone know who the teachers are here? Are there several? Any comments on the pros and cons of the different teachers?
Also, apart from general oud music, do you guys know about belly dancing? Is there specific kinds of oud playing to accompany belly dancing? If you have also any comments relating this to the Tokyo-area teachers, also very much appreciated.
Thank you!
Justin

Thanks. Yes, from searching this site before I posted I had found that website, but unfortunately I cannot understand Japanese and for some reason that site does not get translated by the translation websites (eg. google language tools etc). Anyway, is this guy meant to be very good?
Thanks
