I started learning tsugaru jinku just before Christmas, from Kyles awesome book!
This is how far I’ve come. I really enjoy playing it, both for the rhythm and for the fairly easy notation. And of course, for the bachi tsuke training!
(My neighbors must hate this song by now… lol.)
This is one of my favorite Tsugaru minyou pieces… particularly because it’s one of the few I confidently know the ‘straight’ melody to. (Other pieces like Yasaburo Bushi are played slightly depending on the player)
Excellent snap in maebachi!
If I may suggest, try having a shot of spirits and see how it affects your bachi hand. It would be great to see it a little looser and relaxed.
I also know how to play this… without proper bachizuke.
My only real big problem… Lack of proper bachizuke, but i think i might post my video of playing it this week when i get the time for it
