Hamabe no Uta (Song Of The Seashore)
Tamezō Narita (1893-1945): Hamabe no Uta (Song Of The Seashore)
This is a Japanese song, written in 1916 and made popular in the West by James Galway's 1979 recording. I have played it on mandolin, mandola (octave mandolin), mandocello and tenor guitar, using our group's own arrangement. The mandocello doubles the mandola.
