These Shamisen pieces are priceless treasures for the world. The emotion. I'm looking for an old traditional version of Sakura Sakura, not the modernized versions, but a version in which an elder life-worn woman sings slowly, in an imperfect voice, of the falling beautiful flower petals, yet sadness in her singing, to an old-school shamisen. Does such a piece exist?
