Which song is this?

She is improvising around this tune… but I’m wondering what tune this is? I’ve heard it before by accident but have no clue what the name is.

Any ideas?

Sounds like Aiyabushi to meeee

Or maybe Yasaburo bushi~

Both fine tunes, but that’s not it. Hmmm…

It could also be an arrangement of Ringo bushi, now that I look at the fingering. But it’s pretty heavily modified.

To be honest… I’m pretty well at a loss at this point. I’m inclined to think it’s something I haven’t heard before that uses phrases similar to what I linked.

No, it is a song. I have heard (by accident) but failed to remember the title.

Perhaps it will pop back out again at some point.

It’s going to drive me nuts!! I’ll watch every video on YouTube until I find it.

Report back with confirmation of madness or the song, please please

Madness is already a given.

a variation of ringo bushi would also be my bet but I guess only in case I would absolutely have to bet :slight_smile:

Nope, it is a standalone song. Trolling YouTube to find out…

I’m getting close, but still no title:

That’s “Aiya bushi (kyuu bushi),” the old way of playing aiya bushi .
Here’s another version:

Knew it!

Interesting. Mystery is solved!

Thanks!

I have a file in which a minyo is sung, but I don’t knowthe title! The singer said it was called Ayabushi…

Gerry sensei always on top !

It’s the minor scale version of Aiya Bushi, I found it while browsing through Ten Ten’s new additions to her Minyo Collection (:

pretty cool!

I wish I could actually play this instrument.
