Description
Please request Before You Begin Learning Shamisen prior to requesting this lesson.
This is a nagauta shamisen class. I do not teach tsugaru, folk songs, etc.
Please choose Before You Being Learning Shamisen so that we can discuss your instrument and the camera positioning. I will then take any requests you may have and try to incorporate them into your lessons. Progress differs from person to person, so I will try to prepare the best lesson for you.
- Shamisen for Beginners- We will learn the basics of the shamisen's structure, posture (proper form for performances), tuning, how to hold the bachi (plectrum), how to use the bachi, how to pluck the 3 strings, scales (positions). We will spread these topics over several lessons (ideally 10 to 15). We will also learn how to read basic sheet music. I have original music prepared for beginner students that I will send to you as a PDF file. We will learn according to this sheet music, and you can also practice and review on your own.
- We don't necessarily have to play just nagauta. As we progress, we can also try playing children's songs, hauta, or kabuki songs.
- Let's try to play with proper timing and tempo.
- Shamisen for Intermediate and Advanced- We will practice technique by focusing on playing nagauta. Let's begin with well performed songs. Listening to CD's as a reference can also help you improve.
- I can help advanced students with specific songs and high tones, so please let me know what your song request is before the lesson.

充実したお稽古でした。自分が他ジャンルの三味線を習っていたため、全くの初心者に稽古をするよりも、先生は大変だったのではないかと思いますが、根気よく伝えて下さいました。 また、長唄の周辺の話題なども織りまぜてのお稽古で、とても楽しいひとときでした。Feb 17, 2022 -
