The complete Tsugaru-Shamisen instructional book by the fast-rising shamisen star Sayo Komada is now out! Looking back on her early days of playing the instrument, she created this book out of a desire to have a more enjoyable teaching book and sheet music. While the book covers the basics of the Tsugaru Shamisen, it also includes many pop and rock songs in its repertoire, making it engaging and enjoyable for learning the instrument. In addition to the shamisen notation called Bunka-fu, one of the common shamisen tablatures, the book includes TAB notations that are familiar to guitarists and ukulele players for playing pop songs with complex rhythms. It is easy to read intuitively, so there is no need to be afraid of reading sheet music. With instructional videos that support your practice as well as actual performance videos, this is a substantial book that will keep you going without giving up! --About the author: Sayo Komada began playing the Tsugaru shamisen at a very young and has held the titles of Tsugaru Shamisen Japan No.1 and Tsugaru Shamisen World Tournament. She now has Shamisen schools mainly at three locations in Tokyo, Kyoto, and Mie, Japan.
