Applications for the Second Annual Tai Hei Shakuhachi Scholarship are
now being accepted.

This scholarship is dedicated to the memory of our dear friend Masuda
Shuho, shakuhachi maker from Kawasaki, Japan whose untimely passing
in 2001 left a great void in our hearts. It is called the Masuda
Shuho Memorial Scholarship.

Tai Hei Shakuhachi is offering $1,000 scholarship annually to a
deserving person or persons wishing to develop and enhance their
involvement with the shakuhachi and its music. The award will be
presented in whole or part to one or more applicants. This
scholarship is an effort to encourage and promote interest in
shakuhachi and its traditional music abroad. For this reason, it is
limited to players residing outside of Japan.

The scholarship is not intended for professional players or teachers
of shakuhachi, but for their students and others who aspire to learn
the instrument. Teachers are encouraged to inform their students
about this opportunity. All others, regardless of age, gender,
nationality, race, religion or group affiliation, are encouraged to
apply. Applicants who have bypassed for the award can reapply as many
times as possible in subsequent years.

Awarding the stipend will take into account financial need as well as
talent and ability of the applicant. Applicants will be asked to
provide some basic information and write an autobiography. Letters of
recommendation may be submitted with the application, but are not
required. The name of the recipient(s) will be announced as soon as
possible after the December 15, 2005 deadline for submission.

Last year three scholarships were given. Many thanks to those who
have generously donated so that we were able to expand this year's
awards.

All the best,

Monty & Kayo Levenson
