Hiromitsu Agatsuma has practiced the ancient Japanese art of Tsugaru-Shamisen since the age of six, going on to win the 1988 All-Japan Tsugaru-Shamisen Competition at the tender age of 14. Known throughout the world as simply Agatsuma, this original artist has long infused the traditional sound of the shamisen - a long-necked, three-stringed, lute-like instrument - with present-day international musical influences, including blues, rock, dance music, folk, flamenco and funk. Agatsuma will give a workshop as part of the Thursday Workshop Series.
