Its breathy, meditative tone is central to many classical and folk repertoires in Japan. Performers on shakuhachi interpret melodies with subtle pitch inflections, rich timbral variation, and expressive phrase shaping. This instrument has been used for ritual, theater, and popular song arrangements, bridging classical and vernacular musical worlds.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis release collects well-known older melodies arranged for shakuhachi and presents them in a clear, instrumental format. The compilation highlights the expressive range of the instrument across sixteen tracks, from melancholic ballads to lively traveling tunes. Arrangements emphasize melodic clarity and traditional ornamentation, making the recording a useful introduction to shakuhachi interpretations of familiar songs. The album is presented by King Records as part of a series showcasing traditional Japanese instrumental song forms.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTracklist\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.\u003cbr\u003e唐獅子牡丹 - KARAJISHI-BOTAN (2:30)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e2.\u003cbr\u003e東京流れもの - TOKYO-NAGAREMONO (2:24)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e3.\u003cbr\u003eギター仁義 - GUITAR-JINGI (2:56)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e4.\u003cbr\u003e関東仁義 - KANTO-JINGI (2:54)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e5.\u003cbr\u003eさらば赤城よ - SARABA-AKAGIYO (2:32)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e6.\u003cbr\u003e兄弟仁義 - KYODAI-JINGI (2:47)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e7.\u003cbr\u003e流転 - RUTEN (3:28)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e8.\u003cbr\u003e名月赤城山 - MEIGETSU-AKAGIYAMA (3:31)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e9.\u003cbr\u003eおしどり道中 - OSHIDORI-DOCHU (3:13)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e10.\u003cbr\u003e一本刀土俵入り - IPPONGATANA-DOHYORI (2:48)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e11.\u003cbr\u003e旅笠道中 - TABIGASA-DOCHU (3:15)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e12.\u003cbr\u003e妻恋道中 - TSUMAKOI-DOCHU (3:37)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e13.\u003cbr\u003e人生劇場 - JINSEI-GEKIJO (2:28)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e14.\u003cbr\u003e大江戸出世小唄 - OHEDO-SHUSSEKOUTA (3:02)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e15.\u003cbr\u003eつばくろ笠 - TSUBAKURO-GASA (2:44)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e16.\u003cbr\u003e忠治子守唄 - CHUJI-KOMORIUTA (2:55)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor CD Player\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"King Records","offers":[{"title":"Used In Sleeve","offer_id":51375809921302,"sku":"133169","price":79.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0083\/0377\/1710\/files\/20266114151235scan.jpg?v=1780308604","url":"https:\/\/www.neverdiemedia.com\/products\/shakuhachi-good-old-melodies-w-writing-on-artwork","provider":"NeverDieMedia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
