A song from northern Aomori province in japan
played on Tsugaru shamisen, a bigger version of the soft three-stringed japanese lute, created in Aomori/Tsugaru region due to extreme cold
This song is quite fun. It uses a sad tuning (sansagari, in video case D, G, C or Re Sol Do)
with lots of not commonly used neck positions on shamisen. Although the video and my technique are really bad (First attempt with webcam, heheh), please enjoy!

Shows how much I know, because it all sounds fine to me! (laugh) I like this piece... and I feel I am learning a bit too, through your information. Thank you for uploading, and continue on!
Fuggin love the shamisen!
