In this episode, I demonstrate three bamboo flutes inspired by the Japanese end blown notch flute called the "shakuhachi." A flute of this kind has a specially formed and shaped mouthpiece, as well as four finger holes and a thumb hole. I am not too familiar with Japanese music. Any tunes I play are original and improvised. <hr> Hosted on Acast.

In this podcast, I introduce musical instruments I have made myself, using objects I found in and around the house. This is in keeping with the folk tradition where people make instruments from whatever is available. You can make your own instruments,as well! This podcast is designed to inspire you. What you make and how you make it is up to you. Factory-made instruments tend to be made a certain way, using specific materials and methods. The folk tradition allows for a lot more creativity and flexibility. When it comes to drums made by a craftsperson, for example, no two drums are exactly alike. <hr> Hosted on Acast.
