Chris played the hichiriki in our gagaku orchestra. He was a gagaku student of Suenobu Togi Sensei. He carried a humble yet noble character and a ready sense of humour. Having played gagaku at the Kami Shrine empowerment and at the Stupa Consecration he will be missed at such celebrations. I am sad to hear of your passing on dear Chris and wish you many blessings and joy on your journey. Dessie
