Description
"Sakura" is an ancient Japanese children's song. It is traditionally accompanied by a koto (a long 13-stringed instrument) or a shamisen (a 3-stringed lute) and various gongs, drums and bells. This is a musical visit to a culture quite different from our own. Captivating! (2:00) This title is available in MakeMusic Cloud.

The concert band plays this and omega march. Our symphonic band plays lone eagle march and crest of nobility. They sound really good. The concert band has come a long way. #symphonicclarinet

My band played this with another school's band and at the end the person who was playing the gong missed it so there wasn't that much sound
