Play Meris Lower… Lower…

Shakuhachi101

Most new players don’t get meri note low enough. So this 101 tip is to take time in your practice and work on bending you note lower and lower.

If you’ve got a tuner, great use that to see where you  are, how low you’ve gotten. You need to get to the point where you can move to a meri note and feel it naturally. Most meri notes will not be as full sounding as a natural note but during your practice concentrate not just on pitch but keep in mind the note’s quality. Play them until you get the most beautiful note you can get, low, a bit breathy and even by its self, a beautiful sound.
