Knowledge Database<\/h1>\n

The blog is the centerpiece of Shamisen-Zentrale. Every week there is a new article about songs, playing techniques, and practical tips, but also about the historical background and the socio-cultural context in which the instrument and its music are embedded. The goal is a constantly growing encyclopedia that illuminates all facets of the Shamisen. <\/p>\n

Learn Shamisen<\/h1>\n

Video courses are currently being diligently created so that Shamisen can be learned independently of time and place through self-study. <\/p>\n

But there is also the possibility of taking private lessons, attending workshops, or learning in a group in a club. A colorful mix of everything also sounds like a good plan \ud83d\ude42 Read here where you can learn Shamisen and how. <\/p>\n
