Tsugaru shamisen, a blind man called Bosma, had been playing to live. The representative song is this "JONGARA(tsugaru-jongara-kyokubIki". Tsugaru shamisen is generally a accompaniment of vocal but this song is a solo of Tsugaru shamisen, taking a style that the player play impromptu as applying many techniques as much as possible.
And in the melody we added "Tsugaru-jongara-kyubushi" as an arrangement.
The instruments used in this song are mainly Tsugaru-jamisen.
