Shakuhachi Lesson # 12 Your First Song on Shakuhachi Hi no Maru

[@patrickbateman7157]

Yay, I've learned to play this. But I'm really suffocating myself with the last sound. I guess I'll spend some more time with this song just polishing the technique and working with my breathing. There are not many channels like this one, so I thought I'd say thank you. Seems like quite a lot of valuable content already

[@TairyuShakuhachi]

Wda monk, thank you so much for the comment. I agree, there really are not channels like this and I hope to expand it more and give even more content!

@@TairyuShakuhachi Do you teach Jazz Shakuhachi? Or Where can I learn it?

[@TairyuShakuhachi]

[@mokuho]

[@TairyuShakuhachi]

You are most welcome :-)

[@alexcarter8807]

this looks easy to follow along.

[@TairyuShakuhachi]

I am so glad to hear this!

[@NorthForkFisherman]

It's that switch to kan after the ri note that trips me up every time. My ro notes are always otsu. Sigh

[@TairyuShakuhachi]

I have a bunch of lessons on this and tips through the shoden series on my membership consider joining. but in the mean time, be sure that you a changing the octave with the lips not with the breath, ie pushing harder to get more air out.

I wish there would be a dynamic hole image displayed that shows which holes are closed and opened as the teacher plays. I would really be able to learn Shakuhachi like this. Each hole should have the relevant Japanese character and English pronunciation written next to it.

[@TairyuShakuhachi]

Or just memorize the notes. Too much visual assistant becomes a crutch for playing shakuhachi. Keep working hard! You can do it

[@forestlodgefl5atdroomparkh488]

This is a perfect song to start practicing basic pitches! Thank you for the video! We need more songs like this... Is there any book with basic songs/scores for Shakuhachi begginers? Or do you have more videos like this?

[@TairyuShakuhachi]

I have a bunch of pieces that I teach in my studio. I have a bunch of them scattered across an array of books.

This video helped so much to help me learn. I have a $40 shakuhatchi i bought from amazon. It was fun for a while and is becoming limiting. Is there a good place to buy a shakuhatchi for under $200?

[@TairyuShakuhachi]

Under 200? I would probably buy a Shakuhachi Yuu
