Piano Musics & Japanese Traditional Entertainments さん、ご丁寧な説明、有難う御座いました。母も箏を弾いていましたが、「楽譜など無くて、先生の演奏を耳で聞いて、それを覚えるもの」と申していました。母はテンポの遅い曲をポツポツと弾いていましたが、洋楽を弾いているのを見た事はありませんでした。ただ晩年には変な楽譜を見て、練習をしていました。残念ながら、私は楽譜も読めませんが、演奏を聴く事は出来ます。最近では和楽器バンドなどもあり、箏の音色の良さを世界に発信出来る時代になっており、楽しみにしています。ご丁寧な説明に感謝感謝!
Piano Musics & Japanese Traditional Entertainments さん、こんばんは。貴女の母上は、箏の大師範ですか。とても素晴らしい母上ですね。もしも、御自宅が我が家に近ければ、母を弟子にして頂けたかも。しかし母は既に遠い空の彼方に行ってしまいました。また色々と教えて頂く事があると思いますので、宜しくお願いします。💐
This is a Hungarian style dance, but not Hungarian, in fact it is the work of the Italian Vincenzo Monti, and has been defined as "the most Hungarian czarda of the Hungarian ones".
Thank you for your message! And thank you for watching my RU-vid video and share my web page. You are a strings instrument player too! Even though your intuitive performance has some difference from my style,it`s very nice! In this video, I played Csardas on piano and 25 strings koto by myself. I`m glad if you like it. I`ll continue to play both of Japanese and overseas music by koto and upload more videos.Also the song of Miki,”Shiroi Kaze no shita de”, I want to play at some future date.
That was very beautiful. I'm glad I could listen to such a wonderful performance before going to sleep. Maybe I'll listen to another before I go. ^ - ^
You are very welcome, yes, GREAT piano playing as well, keep up the great work and passion for koto. Thank you for enjoying my original new works too. Keep in touch. All the best always - from Canada. - Vi An.
Awesome! How did it come to your mind to play Hungarian csárdás songs, and where did you find the scoresheets for them? Thank you. Greetings from Hungary! (素晴らしい!ハンガリーのチャールダーシュの曲を演奏しようと思ったきっかけと、その楽譜はどこで見つけたのですか?ありがとう。ハンガリーからこんにちは!)
I discover this extraordinary instrument the delicacy of the notes emitted by the touch of the strings is soothing it's a beautiful instrument you play beautifully thank you for this moment of happiness
New to koto and love it, but why do you move the brdges while playing? to change tune? but that's incredible, while playing doing that as part of the song.. impressed =D
Exactly, in that regard the koto is a bit like a harp. A harp has 7 pedals (one for each note (A,B,C,D,E,F,G)) which you can tune to natural, flat or sharp and it affects all strings tuned on that note. On a koto, each string has its own bridge, and you can tune each of them within their ranges. You move the bridges as needed. For instance, if most of the piece requires a C, but part of it requires a C#, then you would tune the string to C at the beginning, then change it while playing to C#, and then back to C.
I have never seen an instrument like this...The sound is amaising, the skills of that girl are awesome, I guess it is something like a harpe or something...anyway, well done!!!
