There is one place left for this shakuhachi workshop....please contact me
off-list for details, costs etc. at: shin-on@mindspring.com

SANKYOKU INTENSIVE NOVEMBER 18-20 with David Wheeler & Yoko Hiraoka

The teaching format will be 9am-4pm Friday and Saturday, 9-12 on Sunday.
Sessions will vary with David Wheeler alone and David Wheeler plus Yoko
Hiraoka. Some of the time Yoko will be teaching without David and sometimes
you will be enjoying tea ceremony in our tea house! In other words there
will be a variety of things to do. And lunch of course.
--------------------------------------------

The essence of the instruction is to give you the essentials of how to
approach sankyoku, including:
 
The structure of classical pieces, maebiki, maeuta, ainote, tegoto,
chiraishi, atouta.

Rythmic phrasing, breathing, fingering, pitch control, dynamic contrast.

Intonation and ornamentation specific to the Kawase school.

The importance of listening to the string player and holding in mind the
sung poem.

---------------------------------------------

I will be ferrying students back and forwards from our house here in
Louisville, so if you take a shuttle from the airport (DIA) to a Louisville
hotel (40 mins), your transportation thereafter will be taken care of.
 
It would be lovely to have you here!
David
