  • Hey, guys, I want to share some of my playing with you.

  • And for those of you interested, maybe a bit on how and where you can start.

  • I started my apprenticeship with the Yoshida Brothers exactly eight years ago this month.

  • A year ago, I had the opportunity to play with them on TV, and shortly after that, I was lucky enough to be able to document the process of having a brand new shamisen built by a Japanese craftsman.

  • This is that shamisen here.

  • My old one is actually sitting there in the bag, and this is how I practiced pretty much every day, minus the camera had all that usually starts with tuning because a lot of people are curious.

  • The strings are tuned to C.

  • G.

  • C.

  • There are no frets.

  • The biggest ring is made out of silk, the smallest is made out of nylon, and the middle one is made out of something called Ted Tron.

  • After tuning, each practice tends to start with something called, but she's okay, which goes like this, and that's actually one of the most challenging things that you can do.

  • That is the warm up, and it serves two main purposes.

  • Number one is obviously an additional layer of tuning.

  • But originally, the Shami said, was played by blind musicians and this was their opportunity.

  • So let people know that a performance was about to start.

  • Many cigarettes, jammies and songs actually start opening with that, but she's a gay.

  • My first, while of Shami said, in practice or okay, Co.

  • Was literally just that initial strike that or or the It reminds me of trying kendo a while back and focusing on that first strike over and over and over.

  • And still, after eight years, every single gay co starts with a little bit of a shimmies and fun fact.

  • I go through about one of these bunch E every year to two years, and they do not come cheap because of the size that I use.

  • I used to be able to get them at about $1200 U.

  • S.

  • But recently they've gone up in price and are getting closer to tooth.

  • $1000 per Budgie were searching for alternative option after practicing the but sees a gay, we usually go into a song called DACA.

  • This'll is a great warm up because it has most of the difficult techniques in cigarette Emmys and wrapped up right inside of this one song.

  • Even in that one that I did there, I stumbled a little bit in the beginning.

  • I usually do a couple of rounds of this song to help me warm up.

  • Today, I want to do something just a little bit more interesting.

  • Called Comma.

  • She comes.

  • She's really fun.

  • It's really fast.

  • It's got a lot of building, but more than anything that definitely takes a lot of stamina.

  • It starts out real easy.

  • This side is easy.

  • This side that's doing all the work.

  • If I were to play that really slow, it's like this.

  • It's just that again and again and then use pick up the speed.

  • It's really easy to get carried away with those.

  • There's actually another one that you do at the end of the song, which again all this hand does is move up and down like this.

  • That's it.

  • Everything else happens right here like this, warming up with a mushy because it requires so much stamina because there's so many different ways to play around with, and because there's such a variety of different.

  • Come on, you can do like on usually after warming up the first song that our practice almost every single time.

  • It's called Subaru Jungle Taboo.

  • She is like the main song of To Get Them Inside.

  • Now that song that's on the really challenging it was actually passed to me from the older of the two Yeojun brothers.

  • And then I spent a couple of years adjusting it, changing parts and forming it into my own version that I use for performances and the shamisen competitions here in Japan.

  • Being able to play something like that takes years of dedication, which is one of the reasons that I don't always recommend people to start the Chinese, and I practice on average for a minimum of 1 to 2 hours every single day on days where I have a little more time.

  • That'll go anywhere from 4 to 5 hours if possible.

  • But for those really interested, I'm gonna share a little bit later on about how and where to get started.

  • My absolute favorite song to play.

  • So when I've been learning for about the last year or so, called yeah, honestly, this song is just so much fun to play.

  • And since this is my favorite part of this entire video so far I want to share something with you.

  • I've actually secretly been running up a tree on for the last while as a place where I can put out content and new streams for only those people who really want to be a part of.

  • It is a secret podcast hidden instagram account where I go live once a week.

  • Just a fun place to hang out and lets me spend more time with you.

  • A few people have found it already, so I thought it was time to let you know that it exists.

  • If you want to come out and hang out over there, I would love to have you.

  • Anyway, I think that's given my hands enough of arrest that I should be able to play a little bit more.

  • Okay, okay.

  • I honestly just love.

  • This instrument has become such a huge part of my life.

  • And a lot of people have asked where they can get started and how they can get started.

  • First and foremost, I'm gonna link below.

  • I would recommend starting in Chinese ink.

  • LaMacchia there's a couple different reasons, but the main one being that cool matzos on the shamisen maker who actually made my shamisen a is someone I definitely trust.

  • Both the interaction and the quality of his products and be even a beginner shamisen like the one that I have behind me here can cost you thousands of dollars.

  • That one.

  • There was well over 2000 American, but come outside has made something called the Shammy Boy, which is kind of more like a beginner, just kind of play around, Cheney said.

  • Like if you're not super super serious and you don't want to invest hours a day in thousands of dollars, the Xiaomi boy is a really great place to start.

  • The main part is actually trust the person who's selling it and the quality of their work and their products.

  • I've seen way too many people go in the wrong direction and spend far too much money on a shamisen that almost definitely wasn't worth what they paid for it.

  • So start with semi single Monsey.

  • If you have additional questions, feel free to hit me up.

  • If there's enough interest, it might even lead to the creation of something exciting, but I don't want to get back in do this a little bit more practice.

  • I'm definitely gonna be doing a shamisen Q and A.

  • Video it sometime if we have enough interest.

  • I'm also gonna Lincoln entire playlist of shimmies and content that I have put together.

  • But I kind of want to wrap things up with just a little bit more playing.

  • There's so much that you can do with the semi center.

  • There's a few things that I've been working on things like That's actually the first part of the song that I used to open up this video, the one that went like Think, think that's all the stamina that I have for today.

  • This has been a lot of fun.

  • I'm hoping that this could be the beginning of much more shammy Sana content to come again if there's anything that you want to know.

  • Looking forward to doing this video so much, I cannot even tell you against a creator.
