Okinawan musical instrument "Ryukyu Karen"

Do you know about the 13-string Japanese string instrument "Ryukyu Karen"?

※From the official website of "Ryukyu Karen"

A "metal string" that plays a harmony with one "sanshin string" that plays a melody and a set of three x four types of cords (harmony).
It is a new stringed instrument born in Okinawa, like a combination of guitar and Taisho Koto.

"Ryukyu Karen" was born from such thoughts so that everyone can play musical instruments easily and happily.
It is easy to enjoy regardless of men and women of all ages, and it seems that it is also used in educational and welfare settings.

A special program was filmed in Okinawa World to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the musical instrument circle.
A performance against the backdrop of the red tile old folk house. The light and gentle tone resonated.


As with me, music and musical instruments seem difficult, so I think there are so many people who just listen to them.
It seems that "Ryukyu Karen" can be easily played with one hand, so it may be perfect for a step in experiencing the new world of playing.

Everyone in Okinawa, please take a look at the broadcast.
