This course provides new learners with the opportunity to learn how to play the Honkyoku on the Shakuhachi. It focuses on the Daha, a more difficult song that introduces techniques such as Kokoro, Komi buki, and other techniques. Learners are encouraged to begin with the simpler songs from the first lectures before progressing to this piece. The course also includes videos to help learners read and write the music, as well as a short warm-up video in each lesson. To gain a full understanding of the song, learners are advised to practice it hundreds or thousands of times and to rewrite the score as an exercise to memorize the notation. Patience and dedication are essential for success, and learners are encouraged to have fun and explore a new world of music through these two songs.
