About this craft

Shinobue is a bamboo flute central to Japanese festival music (matsuri) and traditional performance. Tenshu hand-crafts instruments using shinodake (female bamboo), a specific regional variety, and tunes them to non-Western scales for authentic ohayashi accompaniment.

Description

Hand-tuned bamboo flute for festival and celebratory music traditions

Store in a dry environment away from direct sunlight and extreme humidity changes to preserve bamboo integrity. Wipe gently with soft cloth after playing. Do not submerge in water. Natural bamboo may shift color slightly over time with exposure to light and air.
