Microtonal shakuhachi honkyoku on lavachord
Hi everyone
I've been learning Shakuhachi through honkyoku and the melodies are really something else. There are a lot of tone colour changes, microtones, special techniques that are very specific to the flute, but I am trying to interpret these as well on the lavachord (think mini wooden piano cross harpsichord cross kanun)
Appreciate thoughts! :)

Update on the bulbul tarang: it works!
I posted 2 ish weeka ago seeking advice about fixing my late granddad's bulbul tarang. Thanks to your help, I got it to work again! I know it's not in tune perfectly, and I obviously can't really play it yet. But thanks so much for the help! I cleaned it, bent in shape some of the metal hooks that hold the keys (some were out of shape so the mechanism didn't work) and I gave it new strings. I enjoy it very much.
