Free Music Notes for Traditional Vocal And Instrumental Music (Japan)

Free Music Review: Relaxing and educational
Hit: 5 Stars

This is my first Japanese music cd and I have to say that it's great for beginners. Inside the cover, there's a little information about Japanese music and the instruments used. It says for example: "The shamisen is a three-stringed instrument whose nearest Western analog is the banjo. It is played with a large ivory plectrum held in the right hand..."
They also explain each of the songs and the instruments used in parenthesis. For example # 1: "Kumoi Jishi (shakuhachi) This shakuhachi solo is played on a 2.1 foot instrument, and is characteristic of meditational music..."
I didn't know that Japanese music was relaxing. By the middle of the cd, I feel very, very relaxed. Unfortunately, the cd lasts only 45 minutes.
