about

京都の被差別部落に伝わる子守唄で、奉公に出された子どもが生活苦をうたった唄と言われている。
フォークソングでは有名な曲だが、民謡として聞くことはあまりない。間奏のメロディーをオリジナルでつけ加え、三味線に太鼓と尺八二本を合わせて弾語りにした。
三味線 / 尺八 / 唄 / 太鼓 :蝦名宇摩

Tsugaru-jamisen, Shakuhachi, Vocal, Drum, all played by Uma Ebina.

The instruments used in this song are mainly Tsugaru-jamisen and Shaku-hachi.
Tsugaru-jamisen
refers to both the Japanese genre of shamisen music originating from Tsugaru Peninsula in present-day Aomori prefecture and the instrument it is performed with. It is performed throughout Japan, though associations with the Tsugaru remain strong. Tsugaru-jamisen is considered the most recognized genre of shamisen music, and has enjoyed multiple periods of popularity in Japan.

The shakuhachi is a Japanese end-blown flute.
It was originally introduced from China into Japan in the 6th century and underwent a resurgence in the early Edo Period. The shakuhachi is traditionally made of bamboo, but versions now exist in ABS and hardwoods. It was used by the monks of the Fuke school of Zen Buddhism in the practice of suizen (blowing meditation).
