Continuing on with our Music Theory Series, Shomyo to Shakuhachi, we do the next crucial element of Japanese music, Time and Space.
In the realm of art, culture, and everyday life, time holds a unique position as a universal constant, shaping the way we perceive and experience the world around us. Yet, in Japan, time takes on an added dimension, one intricately woven into the very fabric of being. This additional layer is encapsulated by the term "Ma," a concept that not only defines but elevates the Japanese perspective on time to a level of profound significance and for many, confusion. Today, let’s clarify and define Ma in a semi scholastic way to help develop a greater understanding and appreciation of Japanese art and music as a whole.

Majestic. Wow! Thank you! These videos just keep getting better, in a sense themselves reflecting the dynamic beauty of ma. Having no beginning and no end resonates for me to describe ma. I have more difficulty with the word “meaning” … ma can be appreciated without attribution of meaning.

Wow, thank you! Yeah, its so simple but what makes ma so difficult to talk about is that it is so multi-faceted. thanks for watching :-)

Is there Ku - Mu! - good job!

@TairyuShakuhachi 7 ай бұрын

Well those are very different topics Mu, is a small but big topic, and Ku, especialyl kukan, is a newer word in Japan. Thanks for watching.

Im looking at a shakuhachi by Shozan Inoue. Is this acceptable for a first bamboo flute (as far as the maker and quality)?

@TairyuShakuhachi 7 ай бұрын

Yes as long as it’s not a reproduction or copy. He recently passed away. A fine maker indeed ❤

The irony here, is that this presentation on the concept of Ma doesn’t contain or utilize Ma. It’s fast, monotonous, non-stop talking. Additionally, highlighting some examples of Ma in music, without being spoken over, would have been appreciated.
