Overview

[Let's play handmade mini shamisen! Traditional music experience workshop]

TOKYO SHAMI EXPERIENCE was newly launched last year as a spot where you can enjoy the shamisen more easily and fun!
This reservation site has just started in 2020.

A new two-hour workshop where everyone can handcraft a mini shamisen, play a few songs, and enjoy a live concert with tea! You can take the instruments you made home and play them at home.

Musical instrument workshops that have been featured on TV, magazines, and on the Web.
It is perfect for those who want to start a new instrument that people around them do not do much, or those who are interested in Japanese musical instruments but are unable to take a step because of the high threshold.

Not only will you be able to play, but also from the history and explanation of the shamisen, everyone can create a shamisen kit and learn how it sounds.
Please enjoy the special experience that can enter the world of deep Japanese!

What To Expect

[Let's play handmade mini shamisen! Traditional music experience workshop]

TOKYO SHAMI EXPERIENCE is a spot where you can enjoy the shamisen more easily.
It started newly last year!

In a calm place that you don't think of Shinjuku, how about an experience of concentrating on making and playing Japanese musical instruments?
It is an experience that foreigners also come, so depending on the timing, it may be an opportunity to have international exchange.
This is an experience for beginners for the first time with the shamisen.

■ Contents ■
1) Put on your coat and get excited. I feel like I feel Japan.
2) Next, let's enjoy a brief explanation of the shamisen. (Easy history and features)
3) We will finally assemble with a mini shamisen kit for beginners. After seeing a sample such as thread tension, I will try it myself. (It is not difficult because even elementary school students have experience assembling) It will be completed in about 20 minutes.
4) Let's make a sound with the shamisen you made! Learn how to read music.
5) Practice the song together. (The score of the shamisen is very simple, and the mini-shamisen has numbers on it, so you can tell where to hold just by looking at it.)
6) Everyone will play together.
7) Take a break. Listen to live shamisen performances along with tea confectionery.
8) It ends when it gets excited. Please bring home the handmade mini shamisen.
Bring back the practiced music and enjoy it after returning home. Show off your shamisen to your family and friends!
