Japanese Geisha Music

- Geisha are Japanese women who entertain through performing the ancient traditions of art, dance and singing, and are distinctively characterized by their wearing of kimono and oshiroi makeup. Geisha begin their study of music and dance when they are very young and continue it throughout their lives. The dance of the geisha has evolved from the dance performed on the noh and kabuki stages. The "wild and outrageous" dances transformed into a more subtle, stylized, and controlled form of dance. It is extremely disciplined, similar to t'ai chi. Every dance uses gestures to tell a story and only a connoisseur can understand the subdued symbolism.
The dances are accompanied by traditional Japanese music. The primary instrument is the shamisen. This shamisen, originating in Okinawa, is a banjo-like three-stringed instrument that is played with a plectrum. It has a very distinct, melancholy sound that is often accompanied by flute. All geisha must learn shamisen-playing, though it takes years to master. Along with the shamisen and the flute, geisha also learned to play a ko-tsuzumi, a small, hourglass-shaped shoulder drum, and a large floor taiko (drum). Some geisha would not only dance and play music, but would write beautiful, melancholy poems. Others painted pictures or composed music.

Music is an expression of human creativity. UNESCO reports that among all the performing arts, music is the most universal and is found in every society, most often as an integral part of other performing art forms and other domains of intangible cultural heritage.
Traditional forms of music are considered carriers of cultural heritage because they represent expressions and traditions transferred through generations of a community.
With recordings from more than hundred nations our collection of traditional music offers a staggering diversity of our humanity.

The veeeeery subtle nuanced drop-downs, change-ups,
sliding shifts, reiterations and such are riveting.
My depression is cured
Well if your “depression” can be cured with listening to a song, then it’s not depression.
@@moaoz it's called music therapy. .example : 1 Samuel 16:14-23 Contemporary English Version (CEV) the Bible to me is a book full of advice using stories as examples ...in the book I mentioned so called saul was soothed of his demons whenever David played harp . So it is possible you will see .
And we all know so called demons lol what I call negative energy ...well they can cause depression .
@@moaoz ever heard about a joke?
Hana :3 This is not a joke, this is an edgy teenager trying to follow trends.
Think before you say something please.
this woman has such a great voice! love it
ITS UR MOM :)
I’ve been listening to traditional cultural music all day. It’s interesting how they are similar concepts in many :) Music is such a universal language

@@liquoriceprose163 oh r/wooshe me then
There is not a single aspect of Japanese music, drama and art that, when I first encountered it, did not immediately send shivers down my spine! Love to all young geishas - 💕!
Music is the surest and quickest path to the very heart of a culture.
Im Japanese and I love songs like this
@Hassan Arjdal wtf?
Hassan Arjdal Actually I think you rent girlfriends in Japan... I’m not sure
Hassan Arjdal Well I don’t know. I’ve never seen a mixed race marriage
@Hassan Arjdal Don't hurry to get married. You can marry whoever you want to but remember that the love in one marriage is the most important thing.
@@totallynotaoi4662 where do you live where you've never seen a mixed race marriage? They're everywhere the U.S.
I’m from the USA, specifically Jersey, but this music is really cool and sounds great. Love Japan 🇯🇵 🇺🇸
Listening to the entire song gives a visual imagination of Japans history..
And to the creative mind :)
I feel like this transports me to a different time and place entirely. Enchanting.
OMG

Hello from Spain. 👋👋👋
🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸
This music is so beautiful. I understood some things about the 1st song becouse I'm learning Swedish, Japanese, and French, and I speak English and Spanish. All of them beautiful languages.
The first song is super old Japanese, so don't feel upset if you can't understand it all. I know Japanese almost fluently and can't understand
Oh, it's so sad you can't understand the first one, because I'm doing a transcription work on it for a class and I think it would be very usefull to have it... you can't understand it, but, can you write it??
I am really into Japan's culture,music,traditional feature .Love from Turkey ❤
Thnx buddy
わたしも
I think you are in a wrong place. It’s the Americans that love their turkeys
@@daraa151 i didn't understand?
Yatsuha Asakura
Don’t worry I am just being sarcastic, making fun of Turks and their turkey😀
WOWOWOWOW!!!!!! NAMASTE, thank you very very much for this sonic gem ,-))))))))) song on 15:00 sounds like the singer is singing a carnatic Indian tune to japanese instruments ... incredible
Hello from Los Angeles. Very nice singing!
Шедевр ! Браво ! Завораживающее пение . Возбуждает и расслабляет . Спасибо за запись .
This is the best Japanese folk music I have heard

I love all the songs, I'm really into Japanese Culture! Thanks! (I have listened to this video for like a year now :D )
This is brilliant, great choice!
So beautiful! Thank you!
Hi Japan! Thank you for sharing your beautiful music with us. The world loves it.

Que hermoso que es la musica, comida,tecnología y cultura japonesa. Definitivamente un pais bendecido y con mucho talento. Saludos desde Perú
Japón ha sufrido mucho. (Y ha hecho sufrir) hasta tiempos recientes están bien. Así que bendecidos, bendecidos... No mucho en general, pero digamos que si en la actualidad.
As a foreigner, I don't understand why I feel so drawn to the Japanese culture. I feel like I've lived a Japanese life before and I would give anything to live in Japan.
Same
because you see it as a idealized idea rather then a culture
@@Gummybearkillerr that's a fairly assumptuous assumption.
@@hasegawataizo4069 its a sadly common occurrence. You can have a very deep passion for another culture, but many people cross the line between passion and interest to "it is the best culture, all others suck".
@@magiconic I can also fall victim to this as well, where there is a line between appreciation and appropriation
I can listen this for a lifetime 🌸
Can’t decide after listening to the Scottish playlist and this compilation whether I was Japanese or Scottish in a past life.
THE MUSIC JAPANESE IS VERY MAGIC, ARMONIOSA
This is a whole new world for me, and a FANTASTIC discovery. Wonderful!!!!
Extremely soothing and awesome 😍😘❤️❤️ I always love Japan
Beautiful music, greetings from South Africa. I love your music ❤️

hello from baghdad i really enjoy listening to these japanese music the first one is my fav
Hows Baghdad?
I love love love this !
Amazing.
This stuff is so cool.
Taiko and Shamisen are real nice instruments.
Reminds me of cattle pulling goods with wood and brass clinking and hitting potholes. Water splashing. Farming. The rhythm and timbre of the instruments is unique to that feel. And the wind coming in sounds like spooky wind at night.
So calming😊💜💜
2:59 amazing:D
These songs are so soothing ♡
Even if u don't understand what ot actually means but it is soothing to ear♡
Thank you 💖
