The mandolin was born in Italy around the 17th century and is a musical instrument that is loved all over the world for its unique lyrical tone. It was introduced to Japan with the civilization and enlightenment of the Meiji era, and spread throughout the country, mainly in university mandolin clubs, and became a huge boom, loved by many cultural figures, including Sakutaro Hagiwara and Masao Koga. Despite the fact that the number of players playing the mandolin is said to be the largest in the world, very few books have been published in Japan that comprehensively explain the mandolin.

This book is aimed at beginners who are just starting to play the mandolin, as well as intermediate and advanced players who have already played the mandolin to some extent, and is written by a professional mandolin player who is active on the front lines. and ``The depth of mandolin culture'' will be explained in detail in two stages.
We provide detailed explanations from the basics, such as how to choose an instrument, how to tune it, and how to change the strings, and cover practical topics such as how to join a local orchestra, how to find a teacher, how to hold an independent concert, and how to create a better sound. I'll cover it. Furthermore, it summarizes the history of the musical instrument that developed mainly in Naples, Italy, and the history of mandolin culture in Japan, and delves into deep themes such as the challenges faced by the mandolin industry and its future prospects.

This is a guidebook that helps beginners quickly discover the rich world of the mandolin, and is also a comprehensive book that summarizes the unlikely "history of Japanese mandolin culture."
