Make an effort to talk to those around you. There are other orchestras in Kyoto you may be able to join, if you&#8217;ve brought your instrument to Japan.

Kyoto Three Universities Joint Symphony Orchestra is a very welcoming college-level orchestra, but it&#8217;s a bit chaotic and their rehearsal schedule is fairly intensive. Ultimately, figure out what you want from joining orchestra in Japan.
