From Masahiro!

Hey everyone!

It’s Masahiro Nitta!

I’m happy to always be enjoying Bachido!

Working together with Kyle, we’re pushing to do more and more to make the site more enjoyable for everyone!

Again, if there are any requests, I want to respond as much as I can.

From now, we will be filming shamisen technique videos! Looking forward to it!

Next, we have the Team Bachido appearance at the May Hirosaki taikai.

To everyone who will attend, let’s all do our best to win first place!!

Of course, if we don’t win first place, don’t be disheartened. (笑)

For Kyle and I, it means so much that people from around the world are coming together as a group to enter a shamisen tournament. So, let’s do our best and all share this fun experience together as Bachido members!

Furthermore, there will be video of the event, so for those who can’t come to Japan this year, please enjoy the video!

Also, we’ll be having the Bachido festival in Japan! Let’s all be happy to give every shamisen loving person the chance!

Everyone, let’s come together in happiness! I look forward to the day that we all meet!

Hey Masahiro!

As I recently discussed some weeks ago, are there any plans for trying to make Bachido a place for Japanese people as well? What is your take on the matter?

I’m sure there are others in Japan who share the same feeling for the international spread of the Shamisen.

Looking forward to the technique videos for sure!

See you at the Bachido Festival!

I’m going to try and get a version of the Shamisen Composer up and running if you want to try it out.

are you a coffee fan also or would Kyle serve something else?

anyway I am a big fan of the kizuna duet so in case you ever run out of ideas for videos . . . and whatever they are about I am sure I will find them cool I mean this site is such a cool thing in general also thanks to your efforts so I just want to say thanks for sharing the stoke . . . :slight_smile:

マサヒロさん、大会では宜しくお願いいたします。お会いするのを心まちにしております。
「北の響き」はカイルとケビンの作ってくれたカンタンバージョンをガンバって練習中、あと残り２ページです。
Masahiro san, I am looking forward to seeing you at the Taikai!
I am now practicing the simplified version of Kita no Hibiki, and have two more pages to memorize.

マサヒロさん、
明日のコンサートすっごく楽しみにしています！
私はサンフランシスコ在住ですが、藤本流の先生の元で、主に民謡を習っています。だからお三味線は中棹です。まだまだ、初心者ですがそれなりに楽しくやってます。マサヒロさん、ケビンさん、カイルさん&Shamisen Monsters のビデオを時々観させてもらって、感動してます！
I am so looking forward to the concert tomorrow, yay!

Hi Masahiro!
I’m so happy to be a part of this community and to be able to join for the Hirosaki Taikai, I’m so excited!

I would love to hear a version of Akita Nikata bushi and also the Tsugaru Jinku, since both of them are up as challenges here at the forum!

I’ve made so much progress in my playing since we met (could barely hold my instrument then, haha). I’ll continue working hard.
I want to make the former owner of my shamisen proud! :slight_smile:

Looking forward to see you in May! Have a great time in California!
/Anne

新田さん、

初めまして！ばちどうへようこそ！（ま、もう結構大事なメンバーですけど・・・「フォーラムへようこそ」と言えば良かったかな・・・）

弘前大会で新田さんを始め皆さんに会うのを大変楽しみにしています。ばちどうが日本をびっくりさせるように練習頑張っていますよ。一緒に頑張りましょう！宜しくお願いします！

ちなみに、「Bachido」を日本語にすると、「ばちどう」？「バチドウ」？「撥道」？そのままのローマ字？どうでしょうかね。（「胴でしょうかね」？なんてね。）

Masahiro,

Nice to meet you and welcome to Bachido! (Well, I guess you’re already a really important Bachido member… Maybe I should’ve said “Welcome to the forums”?)

I’m really looking forward to meeting you and everyone else at the Hirosaki Taikai. I’m practicing hard so that we can surprise all of Japan with our performance. Let’s knock their tabi off!

コンサート、すっごくステキでした！ 終わったあともいろいろお話が聞けて、アドリブ？で何曲か弾いてくれたり、大切な三味線を持たせ頂いたり、フツーのコンサートではありえない楽しい経験をさせて頂きました！ またお会いできる日を楽しみにしています！

hey masahiro, first congratulations for the good job/good music. I have a request. Could you make a video focusing on the right hand technique? I mean, the attack with the bachi and so on? Would be real nice. All the best, Anderson
