Adam Robinson and Ralph Samuelson joined us for this WMI Plus At Home session, where they introduced the Japanese flute (shakuhachi). Adam and Ralph spoke about the history of the instrument and the different contexts it was used in as it developed. They discussed how traditional music is taught and how the shakuhachi has grown into a modern, globally connected instrument. During their talk, Ralph and Adam played musical examples of shakuhachi music, performed a traditional duet, “Shika no Tōne” (the distant cry of the deer), and answered questions from attendees.
