暁ノ糸の出だしの詩吟で戸惑う海外の人が多い中、心で感じ取って感動されてるこの女性はすごく素適だと思います。

[@michaelpalmer3717]

Suzanah Yuko, the singer, is an acknowledged expert in traditional Japanese song and is the founder of Wagakki. In addition to her singing she is skilled in sword and fan dance. Beni, the Shamisen shredder is probably the best in Japan, but then each of them is an acknowledged master of their instrument. A truly wonderful band with talent of the scale.

[@adjust_fit_0075]

"Homura" is a metaphorical term for a heart that burns with envy, anger, or other emotions and desires. The meaning of "Akatsuki no Ito" meaning the thread of dawn, and the thread indicates the light between the clouds that comes stinging from the rising sun.

[@一樹渡邊]

多くの人に、日本の和の心が伝わろば、とても嬉しい

[@djoelfan4626]

I love wagakki band because of their spiritual & traditional nuances & of course their spirit of rock..

[@ichiyochannel4277]

Thank you for reacting to The Wagakki Band. I loved your reactions to these two songs. Please react to "Sun Wheel" next, because it's my most favorite song of theirs. I'm Japanese and understand the lyrics of all their songs. The lyrics of Sun Wheel is so encouraging, especially when you are down. Thank you.

[@rudigerpawlik2623]

Beni plays a Tsugaru-style Futozao (Thick Neck Size) Shamisen.The sharp, flashy style of tsugaru was played in the streets by the bousama (blind musicians) who developed a more lively style.Blind musicians at the beginning of the 20th century, including Shirakawa Gunpachiro,Takahashi Chikuzan and sighted players like Kida Rinshoei developed a new style of play, based on traditional folk songs ("min'yo"), but with a lot Improvisation and eye-catching finger work. This style - known as Tsugaru-Jamisen, after the native region in northern Honshu - is relatively popular today in Japan. The virtuoso tsugaru jamisen style is sometimes compared to bluegrass banjo. The classic pick is called Bachi.The koto is a Japanese zither and the national instrument of Japan.The bamboo flute is called a shakuhachi and the second drum kit is a wadeiko The singer's very broad vibrato is typical of Shigin, a traditional poem concert style. Suzuhana Yuko, the singer of the Wagakki Band, began studying the piano at age three and shigin from age five. She graduated from the Tokyo College of Music’s Piano Program. Yuko is currently active as a shigin instructor, singer-songwriter, and pianist. The style of dance that Yuko performs is called Kenshibu ('Sword and Poetry Dance') This is a category of Japanese interpretive dances performed to traditional music with poetry. Kenbu refers to dances that are performed with the help of a sword and Shibu dance with one or more hand fans called Sensu / Ogi (folding fans).The origin is from samurai. In the early Meiji period, Raifu HIBINO (originator of the Shinto school) organized the conventional dancing styles into the current ones by introducing some styles of swordplay. Singing and dancing are performed basically by different persons. The number of performers varies; sometimes one singer and one dancer, but often one singer and two or more dancers. There are no specific costumes for singers, but dancers wear a hakama (divided skirt for men), shiro-tasuki (white sash for holding up tucked sleeves), and shiro-hachimaki (white headband) to express the emotion of the poem. In some dances a fan is used along with a sword.Dancing to shigin with a fan only is called Senbu (literally, "fan dance") or Shimai (literally, "poetry dance"). The mask that Machiya wears is based on the Noe Theater, popular in Japan. Masks are an essential part of the Japanese Noe theater whilst the actors of the Japanese kabuki theater perform without masks. ..

About "Shi-Gin" The part that Yuko Suzuhana sings at the beginning of "Akatsuki no Ito" is "ShiGin". ShiGin is a reading method that adds a unique intonation to mainly Japanese poems and Chinese poems. The history of ShiGin is not so old. It seems that it has been sung for about 150 years. The original poems of ShiGin are short, and the melody of the reading sounds like a repeating style. Yuko Suzuhana is one of Japan's leading Shigin leaders. She is also a pianist + music instructor and composer + lyricist. And she is also a dancer in a unique field called "Kenshibu".

あなたの音楽に対する感受性にとても感銘しました。

[@deacon45]

i haven't seen anyone comment yet about how Beni comes on with three strings and just says "try to keep up guys" to the six string guitar and the five string bass.

[@crystalbowie1212]

The Japanese word "HOMURA" has the following meanings. Fire. Figuratively, grudge, anger, jealousy, etc. burn your heart. The first song represents such a heart-lit flame. The next song, "Akatuki no ito", is a song with lyrics that connects people overseas with a single thread that crosses the sea at dawn at the beginning of the day. they hope the lyrics convey this heart across the rainbow and the sea as she sings. She sing that it would be great if everyone could feel the overflowing feelings of cutting the weir.

[@jacquelinevanbierk]

Wow, that's powerful!!!

[@SKuLL_7stArs]

[@PearlsHarbour]

if you want to hear something different...i highly recommend "fuurin no utautai". it's a ballad written by Yuko. it's very emotional,gives me chills the whole song. when you get the to read the lyrics somewhere, it's even more WOW...can't hold the tears

[@セリーヌ-d7r]

I really ✨love✨ your energy and positive vibe 🔥 I hope you'll do more Wagakki Band reaction in the future 🥺🥺🥺 Maybe react to Yoshiwara Lament live performance by Wagakki Band?

[@joannalewis5279]

Ok, best reaction

[@ぴーのぴろしき]

焔は格好良すぎる

[@wave8359]

Speaking of DRUMS....................would like to hear you react to: Mount Fuji Taiko Festival---(it is annual and always great) but------the Hiryu Highschool band of 2011 and 2012 is fabulous !---you can't miss the "girl in the middle".........unforgettable performance !

[@user-jyanome-daisuki]

ゆう子嬢は、ピアノ奏者にして詩吟の全国大会優勝者で有りますが、詩吟に併せて舞う詩舞・剣詩舞も習得してますので、これらの才能をいかんなくステージで披露してます。詩吟には節調という気道を広げたり縮めたりして独特な発声をしてます。和楽器は、和太鼓、箏、尺八、津軽三味線で構成され、世楽器より音が小さく目立たない為、少し音を高くしてるそうです。この動画観たらそれらが分かるかも？ kzbin.info/www/bejne/l4jPfpZjpcd3mZo

[@tonygriffin_]

Scariest mask ever! Best shamisen player ever! Akatsuki No Ito means The Dawn Thread.

[@leonmichaels2773]

Akatsuki no Ito has sort of became their Encore song as the audience, instead of calling for an Encore, will sing the chorus until the band returns to the stage. There are a couple of videos showing this event.

[@妖精-l4x]

日本人からしても、あなたの思う事と、言葉は、全く同じです。とても素晴らしいあなたのコメントと、素晴らしい演奏や歌は心に残りますね。

[@utakuryukko2023]

I would recomment these from them: 2 instrumentals together, Chie no kajitsu and Somosan seppa: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hZKmZ42PZbCMjMU Another very hard hitting rock, Sun wheel: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pGGuf5SJrqpgfpI A more traditional ballad, Queen of the night: kzbin.info/www/bejne/p6TIqKaCm79pp8k And just the singer and the guitarist doing a duo, Doppo: kzbin.info/www/bejne/l3jRZZ9-d8h-q6s And a title that gives every one in the band his/her chance to shine, Hakushu kassai: kzbin.info/www/bejne/a6Stn6mbd9uigtk I would also recomment this other rendition of Akatsuki no ito, with a different poem, much longer, sang by Yuko in the traditional shingin style: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rZeUhImQhNWKlcU

[@markwilson3697]

this is actually 2 songs. Homura is an instrumental and it flows into Akatsuki no Ito with yuko's vocals

[@TheCyberMantis]

Wolfpack is here for Wagakki Band! When Beni-san shows up with her shamisen... I lose it. Then Yuko-san appears and starts singing shigin, I really lose it!

[@endruvitak]

nice to meet u on twitter👍

[@josephdoo]

🤘🤘🤘yes,spiritual

[@endruvitak]

woooooooww i like this 💯👍 🤘🤘🤘 nice music karawang indonesia hadir 🇲🇨🇲🇨🤘🤘

[@abbazabbado]

A little late to this, but a very impressive reaction to this popular pairing. Don't know if this has been touched on elsewhere, but to possibly help a little with the enunciation (please have a look at the many sites on the web that offer pointers on pronunciation), "most" Japanese words tend to have the strongest accent on the 1st syllable, rather than the 2nd or 3rd, as English speakers often read them. So, in this case, "HO'mura" rather than "hoMOO'ra". That said, in the case of "Akatsuki" the first "A" is almost an afterthought, like starting a sentence with a quiet "Uhh" sound, so in this case it would read more like "aKA'tski" rather than "akaTSOOki". The "u" in this case is virtually silent. Then there are the instruments: Shamisen (SHAH'mee sen) - 3-string "banjo" played with a large "bachi" (BAH'chee = plectrum) Shakuhachi (SHAH ku Hah'chee) - Japanese bamboo flute Koto (KOH' to) - Horizontal stringed "harp" Wadaiko (wah DYE ko) - Japanese drums pounded with thick drumsticks (also called bachi) Again, very much enjoyed your reaction. Will now have a look at some of your others. Thanks! 👋😁

[@tvo2563]

The reaction to Beni never gets old.... Then Yuko and the whole band take it to a new level. Welcome to the Wagakki-verse! Look for vids by CCW [often with subs] and Frank Garcia who post the newest/latest live vids. Their postings seldom get blocked so no need to stop / interupt. Akatsuki no Ito [Thread of Dawn] is one of my favourites and also the Band's Often played at the end of the concert Here's a really good version from last year: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rZeUhImQhNWKlcU hana hirakeba chou eda ni mitsu If the flowers bloom, butterflies will cover the branches warera utau sora no kanata e haruka nagaru kumo no mukou e umi wo koete niji wo watatte kimi ni todoku you ni We’ll sing to the sky To the distant flying clouds Cross the sea, over the rainbow So that it reaches you . seki wo kitte afureru omoi itsuka sameru yume no iibasho de waraiatte irareru you ni kasane tsumuide yuku Flowing thoughts break the weir In this dream we’ll one day wake from We’ll spin a tale that we can laugh at together

[@evilvolts]

they performed with Amy Lee of Evanescence on Bring me to life.

[@bekzodibragimov2933]

👍👍👍👍👍

[@gatograto]

Wolfpack's here. Your reaction is just great and awesome always and your pronunciation of Japanese is perfect. You said it was spiritual and tribal about the beginning of Yuko's singing. Yes, that was typical style of Shi-gin traditional Japanese poem recital with melody. She mixes the technique of Shi-gin and Minnyou traditional folk songs and Okinawa (southern semi tropical Islands of Japan) Minnyou and regular western style. They all have different scales. She explains how to mix them in this clip with English subtitle. kzbin.info/www/bejne/h33YhmekfcyJsNE If you are interested in Japanese drums Taiko, try this piece, Toono-monogatari Kyuu-yon kzbin.info/www/bejne/nn28gal7p9iffpo You've got to comeback to Lovebites sometimes. Try this beautiful performance, with visual performance as well, with full of surprises. A Frozen Serenade kzbin.info/www/bejne/d5aboYSMqpKFhJo or real tight and crazy thrash metal, Winds of Transylvania live version. kzbin.info/www/bejne/jH7RhoyerLGrjsk

[@foguete88]

the "intro" is a full song, called "homura" and the other full song is "akatsuki no ito" ;-)

[@taka556]

i like your reaction and coments cute

[@leonmichaels2773]

Just passing through BUT to hear Yuko at her best, try this Wagakki Band song. kzbin.info/www/bejne/l4jPfpZjpcd3mZo It also has Beni once again shredding the Shamisen.

[@supremeoverlord5420]

Устроить Шоу как будто завтра наступит Конец Света! аааааааааххх какое сравнение, просто попали! После их выступления, просто приходится собирать овации!

[@spaolozzi53]

It's not an intro, it's the first of two songs.
