Other than the beautiful ocean Okinawa is known for, I think the traditional music that originated from Okinawa is unique and nice. To be honest, I hated it when I first heard it, but as I repeated playing their music, I noticed how relaxed it made me. The san-shin (a type of instrument, commonly used in traditional okinawa music) matches the image of the sea, making me feel the warm breeze against my body.
I wanted to learn how to play the san-shin but I was too young to learn it, since they only accepted students who were over the age 16. Now I am over 16, so I should sign myself up for a lesson.
Going back to talk about music from Okinawa, I really like this song from 'Begin'. The song is called 島人ぬ宝. Here is the song on YouTube! Please check it out!
Thank you for reading!
Okinawa Fascinates Me
- JapanLove
- I am a High School student who currently attends school in Yokohama , Japan. I started to want to know more about the beauty of Okinawa , Japan after my family trip to several islands in Okinawa when I was in Middle School. Now, being able to know more about the use of technology, I want to share the beauty of Okinawa with you. I hope my blog would trigger you into visiting Okinawa or leave you with having more interest about the small islands located in Southern Japan.
