Roobato Co.
Where pianists and opportunity meet.
The company name is a fusion of "root" and "rubato".
The word "root" stands for rediscovering the timeless joys of piano music in this digital age,
whereas "rubato" refers to the musical tempo that allows for creative phrasing and flexibility.
Our passion and search for freedom in expression drive our company,
which is founded on the principle of preserving musical traditions
while also innovating and expanding them into new forms.
We are dedicated to supporting talented pianists with educational opportunities,
as well as connecting them to music enthusiasts worldwide.
