Creator
Kaoru Shimura
Lives and works in Kanagawa Prefecture.
At the age of 30, Kaoru Shimura started playing the shinobue because he likes mountain climbing and wanted to have a hobby that he could do even at the top of a mountain. Bamboo is a material that tends to crack when it dries out, but he decided that he wanted to play it anytime, anywhere, which led him to research and develop the reinforced flute. He plays shinobue as a member of a local musical instrument preservation society.
What is "Vacuum Resin Impregnation Technology"?
The shinobue is placed entirely immersed in the resin tank in a vacuum chamber, and the air is rapidly removed with a vacuum pump and left in place for approximately 8 hours. It is then removed from the chamber and the resin is cured.
