日本文化体验交流塾 -IJCEE-

This program explores the intriguing world of Japanese traditional music through the Shamisen. Tsugaru Shamisen is a kind of shamisen, a three-stringed musical instrument similar to a guitar. Characterized by thicker strings and  neck, it is played by plucking the strings with a thick, heavy plectrum. The tone it produces is sometimes quite delicate but may also be strong with "kakegoe" (pitched shouts) like "O-rya!" and "A-rya!" Participants will have a unique chance to also experience Okinawa shamisen.
