Though the koto is influenced heavily on the Chinese guzheng, it produces a beautiful sound that is uniquely it's own. The sound of the Yamato culture of Japan.⛩🇯🇵🗾
@@ambitiousheart5441 Honestly, I disagree. Every instrument is different and perfect in it's own way . They all produce different types of sounds to create music. So there is no better or perfect instrument as they are all different.
That's incorrect. Guzheng is actually an ancestor of koto and Japanese borrowed many Chinese styles of playing. Historically, Chinese civilization is way more ancient than other East Asian cultures. If you look at Japanese or Korean musical instruments you'll find that most of them came from China. No, it doesn't mean that Japanese or Korean cultures aren't unique. They are. But it's just wrong to speak antihistorically
¡MARAVILLOSO!!!!!, hace años que oí ésta música, desconocía el nombre, y me encantó encontrar esta versión con el instrumento original: es una dulce tristeza, suave melancolía, que transporta a una tierra milenaria llena de magia y ensueño. La intérprete..., ¡sencillamente impecable!!!!, su maestría es llevarnos a ése viaje con la sublime serenidad japonesa, ¡su emoción está en sus manos!!!!. El hecho de difundir la música tradicional japonesa (con el plus de utilizar instrumentos originales), es mantener viva la cultura y sus raíces: ¡Muchas gracias por compartir el vídeo!!!!, ¡cariñosos saludos desde Buenos Aires!!!!.-❤
I am glad that you enjoy this performance. It was a rare opportunity to observe at her own residence with private performance for our small group. I have heard this song before in Thailand during the Japanese occupation of Thailand during the WW II.
And this is why we shouldn't let laymen decide copyright cases in music. (ie Katy Perry v Flame) The two pieces are centered around A minor. Sakura Sakura uses the miyako-bushi scale which is closer to our A Phrygian Pentatonic and Interstellar's main theme is in A natural minor and is literally a motif repeated over and over again. They are very different. It's incredibly annoying when someone hears a pedal point melody or a minor interval and decides it must be plagiarism because they're musically illiterate.
@@callmecraig3046 Take into thought that many people may just simply say that it sounds like a certain song. what your saying is not wrong and I feel you, but it's not a bad thing for people to say that it sounds similar to a certain song. whilst replied to this comment nine months later.
victor Martinez so am glad that you like it. I have heard this song long time ago. I was originally from Bangkok and during second world war. Thailand was occupied briefly by Japanese army. And of course this song was popular and remains so in my brain. So when I have a great opportunity to listen to by a master, so I record it and share to the world if people who appreciate it.
So this is what sakura sakura sounds like, satowa hozoki really picked a song for the others to try out first. Who else is here becuase of kono oto tomare
I dunno but I felt like scared hearing this instrument, probably because it's like the sounds in horror movies HAHAHAHAHA Kono-Oto-Tomare bring me here!!
@@FoxrosePettipaw I got you man! We can easily forget during 4 years Trump presidency 😂😂😂 You wrote some how that; it is a depressive Musik Stay safe and happily alive bro!🔥🌈💚🙏👏
@@MikachuAi No it's not. It's a string instrument. There are three categories of string instruments, harps, lutes, and zithers. They are all constructed differently, with the difference between a sharp and a zither being that the harp is strung perpendicular to the resonance body and the zither parallel to it. They are literally two families of stringed instruments...
