Nitaboh vs. Tawaraboh

[@stephenpatterson2860]

Here after watching Mashiro no Oto, and first, I'm pretty sure I recognize the second piece from that show, which is neat, but the main thing I wanted to say was that this clip does something really well that I think Those Snow White Notes lacked: Letting the audience simply listen to the piece and experience their own feelings about it. Mashiro no Oto, even during the most crucial or climactic performances of the central competition, interrupts the performances of the pieces with expository dialogue by other characters or even turns down the song being played and cuts in the with the soundtrack/score to apparently try to tell the viewers how to feel, rather than simply letting the viewers experience an incredible piece of music and do the exposition afterward. It was honestly pretty frustrating. Loved this clip though.

[@jasonwhipp5721]

I feel the same way, conversation doesn’t belong in a song

[@theunknownadmiral314]

@@jasonwhipp5721 I agree.

[@connn1723]

Yeah the 2nd piece is tsugaru jongara bushi, one of the most well known shamisen songs, but I def agree with you ab mashiro no oto having too much talking. This holds especially true during the more important songs.

[@kamarupa1009]

@@jasonwhipp5721 Songs are conversations with the audience and there is an internal conversation for the artist interrogating themselves

I am a tsugaru shamisen player, Ibuki is a very difficult piece. The most beautiful version for me is performed by the great master Chizukan Takeshi pure traditional style. the animation really lives up to the emotions produced by this instrument❤

@@steamedrice5659 I bought my plastic bachi for about 41 dollars, its hardness makes it hard for a beginner, but its a good place to start. The reason for the other bachi to be from 1000 to 2000 is from the softness and flexibility. The materials are from turtle shell to other materials. Also depending on who made it, the bachi's price goes up.

Such a moving performance by the second musician. From the lady thinking about how the musician keeps her mother's spirit alive to the scenery of rural Japan at the time. I am glad the animators made the crowd break into applause at such a shift in music from the lovely sounds of the first man to the second man's music which was sublime verging on the transcendental.

Is there anyone else whose burning curiosity asks what it was about Nitaboh's playing early on that made everyone gasp? What technique or riff was so impressive? Will I know if I just watch the movie? 'Cause I haven't, but I love this and I love the shamisen. Thank you for sharing.

[@MH-rl9yw]

Because he essentially created that way of playing. The origin of the Tsugaru style is unclear, but word of mouth is that Nitaboh was its creator. Originally shamisen was played very delicately, and still is in the Nagauta/Jiuta traditions, but the force with which he plays is, in the movie, brand new, and a revolutionary way of playing.

[@SpaceViking2000]

Imagine only listening to regular guitars all your life and then you hear an electric guitar for the first time. That's basically how I saw it.

@ÖC Damn straight

[@azazel166]

Don't know how to say this, but listening to him playing makes me feel sad for some reason, it's as if I resonated with him(losing his sight at an early age and later on his father).

[@SpaceViking2000]

ÖC honestly. I kinda want one too. But since I can’t play and would most likely ruin it it would be a “mid century decorative piece” or whatever the cool kids are calling it these days.

So many in the comments want to hate. Why? What makes your life so sad that you want an animated (imaginary) character to fail, even when he possess a skill you don't have? "Dude got wrecked" "F*cking Destroyed" No understanding of the underlying tradition even. Such pathetic comments. Anyone familiar with The Yoshida Brothers and many other Tsugaru-shamisen performances will recognize this second piece. Indeed, if one were to google "Tsugaru" one would likely find this exact performance at the top of the list. I have to say, I do love the precision of animation. The artists took great lengths to reproduce finger position and bachi placement. I need to learn more about this anime series.
