dear friends,

The book and CD are wonderful. Not only is playing along with the CD great musical training to get the phrasing right, and you can concentrate on that because the notes are relatively easy without difficult fingerings and pitches, but it's a ton of fun too. And aside from that, I've got something halfway impressive to show friends and family when I attempt to show them what I've been spending a large part of my life on. Jamming the minyo songs to a rocking backing track goes a further than solo Japanese children folk songs in impressing friends. Heck, I even impressed myself, I'm actually making good, listenable music. Seriously, this is a lot of fun, and inexpensive too. Maybe we can get a shakuhachi karaoke contest going! smile
