Thanks Cana,
That was a fun tune to learn. How far have you gotten with it?
Well I hope that helped. I sometimes find it easier to learn a tune if I can see it demonstrated. You gonna post once you have it?
Cool.

I’m off to teach two lessons now (new students , yay!)

Ooooh! Shamisen students??

Man, shamisen sounds so good on that cover. Being reborn as many times as you do, how do you manage to regain that amazing skill after every birth?

very cool tune . . . on the one hand this tune screams for a full throttle orchestra version on the other hand I think a pure solo shamisen version of it so basically what Kevin played but without backing track could be “enough” also and could bring out this melancholic and happy quality in an amazing way too sort of silence being the stage for this cool tune . . . (I might have had a whiskey)

I came across something today that might be of interest to some of you. Maybe it’s already well known since it’s a couple of years old now.
A group called “Aun-J Classic Orchestra” have released a full CD of Studio Ghibli music played on traditional Japanese instruments.
For a taste of it, check out their version of “Tonari no Totoro” on YouTube:

The Physical CD is only available in Japan, but you can buy the mp3s on regular old Amazon .com. It should come up if you search for “Wa-Gakki de Ghibli” (the Album title) or “Aun J-Classic Orchestra” (the band name).

The closest I’ve come is finding the guitar tabs. No idea if these can be converted. http://hjg.com.ar/ghibli/musica/totoro-wind/
