Spring is almost coming, so let’s feel the 
warm air slightly early through Okinawan culture. 
The sanshin (literally “three strings”) is an Okinawan musical instrument and precursor of the Japanese shamisen. 
Often likened to a banjo, it consists of a snakeskin-covered body, neck and three strings. 
You will enjoy a professional Okinawa sanshin performance and experience to play Okinawa sanshin. 
You will touch the lively Okinawan culture in a relaxed atomospher.
