AkiraUema ::: Favorites It really moved me! I know well what it means... There's nothing better than to see the happiness of an elder person listening to the sound of sanshin... It is priceless to play sanshin for an elder. Their happiness is truly genuine and pure. Sanshin, for us Okinawan descendents, touches our spirit. This video encouraged me to keep on doing my best to improve my sanshin skills. Thank you very much. It was the first time I heard Amami minyou. 07-06-20 10:36:25 __________________________________________________
