¡Koshiji Kuitsui - Yaeyama Niage Shu
¡Yasukatsu Oshima
Description
[Machine Translation] A new album of traditional shimauta songs by Yasukatsu Oshima, a leading singer in Yaeyama, Okinawa! This is the first album of traditional shimauta in 15 years, since "My Island Nuta" released in 2000. Since the first half of each live concert is performed using only a sanshin (three-stringed instrument), there have been many requests for a minyo (folk song) album from fans. This is a recording of important island songs in the voice of a singer in his mid-40s, which is said to be the most active age for a singer. The title "Kuitsui" expresses Oshima's respect for the tradition of shima-uta and his determination as a singer to carry on the tradition. The songs of the Yaeyama Islands, which have been sung for decades and centuries, are performed here. Beyond the voices and sangen (three-stringed instrument) that overflow with the scent of the islands, this album breathes the thoughts and feelings of countless islanders.
