So what is this gentleman's name? He looks so kind and peaceful. I absolutely love everything about this video. If you could post another one of him playing a bit longer, it would be perfect!
Is this type of Biwa played slower than the others or does it get fast and explosive?
Thanks for posting this. It's real gem!

My grand mother's brother was a Biwa teacher in Japan. Is it hard to learn? I have few instruments left, some are Shamisen. Others I don't know but looks like Biwa. Can you take lessons in Japan?

@Chichiri520 Please don't compare biwa to that. I hate the sound of that instrument and it;s realitives. I can't even say it's name. It makes me want to puke. BIwa is nice, thats not

I've never heard a biwa like that... awesome, thanks for posting.

If I can get some footage next time I will. Usually when I'm there I'm just getting some repairs or service done so he's not actively making anything.

I like the Biwas that have the sitar like sound. Which ones are the ones with the sawari or sitar like sound?

That would be the Satsuma biwa, and to a lesser extent, the Chikuzen biwa.
