Awww, I am currently listening to the recording :)! How lovely it sounds! ^^ I studied at the University of Cologne (musicology + Japanese studies), and even though I didn't finish my degree, I still think back at it a lot. Part of the orchestras offered there was a Gagaku ensemble, I tried to learn more about Gagaku, got to try out some instruments, and I liked the hichiriki best :), so I stuck to it for the rest of my studies. ^^
