I was so impressed by the challenges and way of life of the wonderful Unno family I met in Bodh Gaya, India, that I sent money from my music activities to their crowdfunding campaign.
When you support someone you are excited about, that excitement multiplies and spreads to the next person.
Seeds of the Earth went to PABITRA SAMAJ SEWA NEPAL, an orphanage in the suburbs of Kathmandu, Nepal.
Keshab Sapkota san and Akemi Honda san of Oshin Foundation, an organization that runs a Japanese language school in Kathmandu, donated food to an orphanage.
Seeds of the Earth, a plant music unit, delivered music to them.
The exchange of music and dance with the people of the orphanage was very energetic!
All of you are great dancers!!
We, Seeds of Earth intend to continue this kind of musical exchange as part of the activities of GlobalKulture Organisation ®️.
See you boys and girls✨

MusicArt Society (MAS) has been providing free music education to the underprivileged children (those belonging to low income families, slum children and children with special needs) since the year 2009. Our preliminary research demonstrated that the children belonging to these categories are more interested, dedicated and enthusiastic about learning music in comparison to other children. This is one of the reasons that MAS has targeted these underprivileged children for providing free music education with the aim of enriching their lives and empowering them through music. In this regard, MAS has aimed to conduct a project entitled “Music for the nation” that aims to provide free music education to these children all across the country.
ミュージック・アート・ソサエティー(MAS)は、2009年から恵まれない子どもたち(低所得家庭、スラムの子どもたち、特別な支援を必要とする子どもたち)に無料で音楽教育を提供している。私たちの予備調査では、これらのカテゴリーに属する子どもたちは、他の子どもたちに比べて音楽を学ぶことに関心が高く、熱心で熱心であることが実証されました。これが、MASが恵まれない子どもたちを対象に、音楽を通じて彼らの生活を豊かにし、力をつけることを目的とした無料の音楽教育を提供している理由のひとつです。このような観点から、MASは「Music for the nation」と題したプロジェクトを実施し、全国でこのような子どもたちに無料で音楽教育を提供することを目指している。
This is the super collaboration with Seeds of Earth and Mr. Mangal Man Maharjan who is Gong and Singing bowl player and owner of Himalayan Sound Healing!!
Thank you, Mr. Mangal Man Maharjan, Brabim Maharjan and Oscar for sharing nice time!!!

We, Seeds of Earth met again in Kathmandu Nepal with Mr. Mousam Gurung, a famous musician in Nepal!
Mousam, Jun Amanto and we, Seeds of Earth met when we appeared in Lim Kah Wai’s film [COME&GO], which was shot in Nakazaki-cho, Osaka 5yeas ago.
He came from a very poor family and left home at the age of 11 to work in Kathmandu, then worked in factories in Hiroshima and Yamaguchi, Japan, while sending money home to his parents, before moving to Osaka, Nagoya, and Tokyo.
In Tokyo, he started his own business as a day laborer and then as a subcontractor. Today, he is not only a famous singer, but also runs a travel agency, a shared house, and a Japanese restaurant/kizuna in Katumandu.
He supports ethnic musicians and participates in many charities and programs for Nepal and the world.
The food at his Japanese restaurant Kizuna is delicious!
We returned the favor with singing and Music of the Plants .
I look forward to collaborating with him in the future.
It was nice time with students and Keshab Sapkota san and Akemi Honda san of Oshin Foundation, an organization that runs a Japanese language school in Kathmandu and Japan-Nepal International Exchange Program.
The plant music unit “Seeds of the Earth” played music for the students, and they sang “Songs of the Four Seasons” to welcome and thank us.
What a wonderful musical exchange!
We, Seeds of Earth intend to continue this kind of musical exchange as part of the activities of GlobalKulture Organisation ®️.

Music of the Plants: Seeds of Earth
A Japanese World Music Duo
Chiyo Kaiga and Kackey form the Japanese Duo “Music of the Plants: Seeds of Earth.” They not only explore the synergy between European and African musical traditions but also engage in spontaneous improvisation, using innovative tools like the “Bamboo” device. Their musical dialogue with nature resonates in their performances, creating a unique musical experience.
Chiyo Kaiga engages the audience with her piano and vocal talents, while Kackey adds the rhythmic beats of the djembe and his vocals. Together, they compose and perform songs inspired by a deep connection to nature, creating a harmony that blends the earthy tones of drums with the notes of the piano.
Thank you @arunsivag @globalkultureindia @christo18 and all of @garden_city_university for giving us such a great opportunity to perform our music and presentation of Music of the Plants

・・・ Japanese world music Duo Chiya Kaiga and Kackey performed at GCU. Their collaboration at Garden City University is a mesmerizing journey, blending emotion and technique seamlessly. With instruments like the innovative ‘Bamboo’ from Music of the Plants, they craft a unique, nature-inspired musical tapestry.
