Shakuhachi & Bossa Nova by Hozan Yamamoto, Shungo Sawada Quintet, released on Union Records in 1969.

"...Jazz and folk music tend to pair very nicely, and fusions of the two genres had been often attempted in the past. This album adds a taste of bossa nova to this mixture. While the distinctive feel of Japanese traditional / folk music remains very present, the velvety yet contrasting musicality of bossa nova comes together with Hozan’s resonant shakuhachi tones to create a profoundly exotic vibe...!

J'ai trouvé cette partition aujourd'hui par hasard.
Je suis super excité. C'est un honkyoku très connu mais il est écrit pour flûte traversière.

Je le connais bien mais sur shakuhachi, je pense qu'il sera très amusant de l'apprendre sur le flute traversière.

Il y a un page d'instruction, trois pages d'exercices, et trois pages de music.

I explain how to play the honkyoku Michi no ryouiki (‘uncharted territory’), which I composed (by using some core elements) to help with starting to play honkyoku.

song for trees

jinashi shakuhachi improvisation
on a 2.85 (key of G#) bamboo flute

surrounded by majestic trees.
after heavy rain fall, shades of green shine out.
first flowers of spring and bird song on a bright day.
everything changes.

You got your first shakuhachi, you managed to get a tone, and then you realised: The pitch is too low? The first question of course is: Have I been scammed?
In this video I discuss how you can detect if you have been scammed and what you can do about the low pitch.
