We are pleased to announce the re-release of “Nanbu Sakaya Uta (Sake Brewing Work Songs of Nanbu) in staff notation”, published in 2018.
This book is a sheet music of eight sake brewing work songs based on the voices of the Toji (master brewers) in Ishidoriya, the home of Nanbu Toji.
This is the first time that the actual voices of the Nanbu Toji have been compiled and scored together with a CD. (The CD “Nanbu Sakaya Uta Project Vol. 1”, sold separately @ https://sumikosatomu.thebase.in/items/58675478)
It is also a rare record of one aspect of the traditional sake brewing process, as it is seldom sung as a work song anymore.
