Rodrigo Rodriguez performs Tsuru no Sugomori 鶴の巣籠 classical Shakuhachi master piece arranged by his master Kohachiro Miyata in 1973. The title means “Tenderness of Cranes,” specifically referring to such tenderness as is expressed between parent birds and their young. Many of the special trill effects can be considered as imitation of bird sounds, although so many variants of this piece exist-not only in different regions, but among different schools and even different performers-that the reference is not always specific. In the hands of some players it has degenerated into little more than a vehicle for virtuoso display. The piece is played here on the standard () shakuhachi. ► BUY SHAKUHACHI FLUTES: ► BOOK SHAKUHACHI LESSONS:info@ ► For creative & commercial licensing: joyce@ ► Rodrigo's Instagram:
