What a Great Shamisen solo. I have often tried to copy this on my own Shamisen but this example is really something special. Just this solo alone had a huge impact on me as a Shamisen Player for many many years.
"tsugaru jongara bushi" Is my favorite shamisen piece.... And so many people gonna come here after mashiro no oto(these snow White notes).... I really want more and more people to know about this because it's really so good.
The shamisen has such a wonderful sound to it..it's one of my favorite traditional Japanese instruments to listen to. I started off my love of Japan thanks to old school anime from my mom and Kaiju movies with my dad, and my own love of games when I was very young, I moved into loving the history as I got older and learned more and I'd love to just go on a tour one day from one corner to the other and just see all the sights. But one thing I can honestly say I love the most is the music, it's always very relaxing to hear the traditional music.
this scene itself makes it a superior series than Mashiro 2021 reason being that it didn't cut off the Shamisen out for flash backs or side characters to give their inner thoughts about the sound. thats my biggest gripe against Mashiro as it consistently did this when anybody started playing. theres always someone speaking every 20 seconds and i just wanna focus on the Shamisen. the fact this scene soley focused the player and his music makes me smile Though to be fair, Mashiro could be considered drama first, music secondary bcos of that reason
never seen this before, was looking up shamisen stuff. totally teared up. I don't know much about japan, but i feel like through the sound and images of this, you get a small feel for the way of life and how deeply this music can affect you. whooo boy! much love and respect to other cultures!
'Hey,Teuchi-sama! You know that fresh sound you've been looking for?' 'Yeah,Hiroshi-kun?' 'Well listen to this!!!' God you know it's over when the Sakura starts falling and even the guy next to you is just in awe. I can feel the emotion in this and I just wish this could happen in real life.
Lúc đầu nghe thì khá chói tai, sau nghe 10 lần và xem anime 2 lần, tôi thật sự thích âm thanh những nghệ nhân chơi Shamisen tạo ra. Dành lời khen chân thành nhất với những người tạo ra anime này.
Just love that instrument.......played it myself for a few......but then i woke up whaha. shamisen ...awesome instrument though can listen to the yoshida brothers for example all day lol
As others have commented already, this is beautiful beautiful beautiful and did bring a tear to my eye. Gonna get the movie now. Some say it's yoshida brothers others say it's not... Who has the real answer??
+Taro Toth (Tarototh) It is a solo. How a solo can be played by two brothers. In the credist list appears the name of the GREAT 上妻 宏光（あがつま ひろみつ) Agatsuma Hiromitsu.
***** I was talking about the strings. I just realised I said the strings do not CHIP or break haha. I really meant "The strings do not break". An Ivory Bachi might break them more
In the actual movie, Nitaboh breaks his original shamisen from plying it two hard. He has to get a special thick-necked shamisen made for his style of playing. I've never even picked up a shamisen, so I wouldn't know from experience, I just thought I would explain the logic they used in the anime.
It's an animated movie about a blind boy learning how to play the shamisen, and you follow him through his life of creating a new style of playing, basically. It's a really good, if a bit slow, movie.
Great movie I really enjoyed it, It got a standing ovation at the Brisbane International Film Festival when it was on a few years ago... maybe like 5 years ago... What ever, its awesome check it out.
@roockage actually if you think about the story, this scene in particular is all about fighting and super powers. The Shamisen player Nitaboh is in fact battling against a rival player who is threathening to discredit his Shamisen style. Only one performer will emerge triumphant. So there-you see this is in fact a FIGHT to a death(artistic death of course). and the Shamisen itself is a mysterious instrument which requires super powers to produce even one clear note. so there you have it!
I must say... and I do so as a person completely lacking in actual knowledge of the instrument and the culture around it music wise... but... many of these I seek out and listen the musician will at one or more points let out a very ... guttural "HWAH!" kinda sound. I have wondered if that is word I don't know that's just that particular artist "owning" the song... if it's meant to be there but maybe a timing thing... etc. What I LOVE about it is that to me it seems the same as a Keyah!! that a martial artist might make at times to focus and or release power etc. I guess that's my point, I wonder if that is in fact what it is even in part... :) Also, after hearing this I want to cry AND fight evil :)
Worse yet... the poor guy next to him you can tell it's like a contest or something and he suddenly (like you said... Oohhh??!!) cus he realizes he just go OWNED and it's just the beginning.
Charles Mills I think that is the idea, the guttural "Hah!" is letting out energy and giving more energy into the playing...releasing and focusing the energy as you put it. I don't claim to know for sure, but it does make a lot of sense.
+Charles Mills If you watch or ever watched anime like Dragon Ball, I'm sure you've met the term "Kiai shout", which is a release of Ki, spiritual energy, to enhance either an object or the own spiritual presence, and/or make others feel your spiritual presence. It also exists in a few martial arts styles, at least I know that it exists in karate.
And this is where black culture and Japanese culture intertwine the two groups take inspiration from each other a lot in media but idk if y’all have heard someone spit bars over shamisen it’s e l a v a t I n g
the next shamisen animation i expect is Zenitsu's from Kimetsu no Yaiba. It's a gag scene, and might not be this good, but i still look forward to it 😂
There is a new one right now called Those Snow White Notes. I have only seen the first two episodes so far, but it is not too bad. You may want to check it out if you have not seen it yet. The first episodes are free (with ads of course) on Crunchyroll at the moment.

That moment where you live in ancient Japan, and start shredding like a boss. XD
He seems to be the first shredder.
I laughed so hard at this comment.
Not exactly ancient, it is set in early modern Japan during the Meiji Restoration.
They actually used fingernails to play the shamisen before the bachi.

It said at the beginning of the movie so you can look it up

I don't play shamisen but I do play guitar and I gotta say, the finger movements are really well animated.
and that's how a rock off looked like in japan ;)
simply beautiful
Màn solo thật tuyệt vời nó làm tôi phải rung động, dù không phải nghe đàn trực tiếp ngoài đời nhưng vẫn để lại ấn tượng mạnh với tôi
On top of the Symphony I loved the way this scene is animated!! bow down to the director
*THAT* shamisen possessed him... *NO DOUBT*
The shamisen player is the GREAT 上妻 宏光（あがつま ひろみつ) Agatsuma Hiromitsu.
i thought it sounded familiar
this is "free bird" in Japanese's version
It's tsugaru jongara bushi
Yea but when I try to play my guitar with an ice scraper I just break strings.

But still you are here after MASHIRO NO OTA.
I don't mind the talking, it was when they cut the shamisen music for generic piano arpeggios that really annoyed me.

After watching Mashiro no oto this video pop out on my recommendation. blessed!!!!
fuuuu that dopamine kick was ....damnnnnn.. bruhh mah whole body got serious goosebumps.
This is why I always feel amazed by Japanese culture,
'Hey,Teuchi-sama! You know that fresh sound you've been looking for?'
'Yeah,Hiroshi-kun?'
'Well listen to this!!!'

Who is here after Mashiro no oto?
This is the solo I needed to hear to want to learn how to play this instrument. Now to get one and start from day one.
A fine precision instrument.
A specimen of crafted increment.
Imagine playing this but with a riff and the audience was shocking and amazed by that.

i love this song
That's how I feel whenever I hear the shamisen!
It's "Tsugaru Jongara Bushi" but in Nitaboh's style.
love the music from this movie, the orchestral parts were performed by the Warsaw Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and recorded in Poland ^^
For God's sake...HOW can somebody dislike this video? Eight people have no soul :D
