- Overview
-
- The shamisen came to mainland Japan in the 16th century and became very popular through the 17th century.
- Shamisen is one of the traditional musical instruments that feel the soul of Japanese people.
- But most Japanese have never touched a shamisen or heard its live sound.
- In particular, only a few dozen people have taken over the singing of "Goze," a blind female traveling entertainer now gone.
- In this workshop you will learn about the history of the shamisen and the Goze.
- Furthermore, by listening to the live performance of powerful and rustic Goze song, you can feel a Japan that even Japanese people do not know.
- And you can take home a handmade mini-shamisen and fill your home with the soul of Japan echoing with its sound!
