Description
The theme song of Princess Mononoke by Studio Ghibli.
This arrangement is in Cm, the same key as the original song. The performance tracks and karaoke versions that are distributed separately by various companies are also in the same key. The song length is exactly the same as the original.
In Part 1, all of the main phrases are played using only the third string. There is some movement, but it’s recommended for players who are still having trouble accurately aiming the bachi (pick). Only position 13 is played with the middle finger; all the others are played with the index finger. Please use this as a reference.
Part 2 is basically backing. In combination with Part 1, there are sections that come through clearly and others that support the melody, so try playing while being aware of those differences.
Please try playing along while referring to the distributed performance tracks and the explanation videos on YouTube.
