The Hawaii Gagaku Society, under the direction of Rev. Masatoshi Shamoto, present an outdoor concert of gagaku music to celebrate the full moon.

Gagaku is the oldest existing orchestral music in the world, with roots reaching back to the 7th century Japanese Imperial Court.

The director of the ensemble, Rev. Masatoshi Shamoto, began teaching gagaku at the UH Music Department in 1962, and in 1968 established Hawaii Gagaku Kenkyukai (Hawaii Gagaku Society), a community-based group that meets weekly on campus to study and practice gagaku.
