Introduction
In the midst of one of the most vibrant living art of Edo(1603-1868), I introduce myself, Youjiro Kashiwa, a third generation player of shamisen.
I hope this information will help to interest you so that I may share with you the art of shamisen that has developed along with Japanese theatrical arts like Kabuki .
Through the plays of shamisen, there will be rehearsals, stories and events recorded.
Thank you in advance for listening!
