Thank you for this. When I was uchi-deshi at the old Iwama dojo, Hitohira-san was my morning weapons partner almost every day for three months and my frequent training partner in evening class. I learned an immense amount from him and was always grateful for his surprisingly gentle tutelage.
Thank you very much for your proposal. Subtitles contribution is open on this video, so you can proceed from here: ua-cam.com/users/timedtext_video?ref=share&v=4YS0VEnH4LM Feel free to communicate your real name if you would like to be added to the video credits once you translated.
Regarding 3:18, can someone tell me whether the Iwama dojo incorporates iaido these days? My sensei was an uchi deshi under the late Saito Sensei (I think that may be her at 4:30), but our curriculum does not include any drawing techniques. I've been wanting to add to my sword practice, so it's fantastic if that's an option within the Iwama style, but I don't know anyone who has been there recently. Thanks!
No there is no Iai training in the Iwama teaching, but Saito sensei has connections with Iai masters so there are exchanges. I also know that some of the key students there practice Iai in an old Koryu school, Tamiya Ryu perhaps.
@@seidobudostudies Really ? I thought that song was written by Lei Qiang. It's called "Embroidered Pouch" isn't it. Sorry if I'm wrong I apologize. ua-cam.com/video/jt85IU53bO4/v-deo.html
You mean the jingle then. Because it's a nice sound. That said, I can't confirm that it's from Lei Qiang, as it was in a database of copyright-free jingles...
The video you linked is actually not available in Japan... wonder why. But I found another occurrence on the web, and yes, it does sound quite the same. I suppose the artist sold it on some other platforms so it ended up available in copyright free (but not free of charge of course) database. Now, on the technical side, It's not a style that is specific to China. The instrument used is called a Koto in Japanese, and it is a pentatonic scale, which is also typical of a specific type of Japanese music. To the ears of Japanese people (well, at least the few people who gave their opinion), it sounds very much "Japanese", but it's not surprising, since Japan "borrowed" many things from China :) We're not trying to be more Japanese than the Japanese here, if something's good, and fits the tone we're looking for, we don't really care if it is Japanese or not.
I come back to this interview again and again. ⛩
The only problem I have with it is that it isn't 2 hours long. 🙏🏻

I'm sure you're right, I just recognized it.
Sounds like the same one, right?

おう先生、は、大先生ではなく、『翁先生』かと、、、
大先生で合っているようですよ。高弟であった先生方も大先生と表記されています。
コメントありがとうございます。おっしゃる通り、書き方は「大先生」「翁先生」と存在するようですが、当社では「大先生」と統一させて頂きました。
