The Tsugaru Shamisen was developed in the Tsugaru Region.
Please enjoy the dynamic performance of the Tsugaru Shamisen.
Tsugaru-han Neputa Village’s Sangendo has a daily live performance of the Tsugaru Shamisen.
Due to the efforts of the Tsugaru Shamisen Aomori Prefecture Association (Chairperson: Toyokatsu Fukushi), we are able to have a place where you can hear a live performance of the Tsugaru Shamisen throughout the year.Thanks to the efforts of the first chairperson and the person who established the Tsugaru Shamisen National Association, Chisato Yamada, when the Tsugaru-han Neputa Village went under renewal, we were able to have created one of our main attractions. Please enjoy listening to the Tsugaru Shamisen which can be heard vibrating from beyond the beat of your heart.
Sangendo is on the route of the Tsugaru-han Neputa Village visitor’s course.For more information on the visitor’s course click here.
