Tuning:

In every tuning, the strings are tuned in a certain relation to each other. For folk songs, there’s no fixed rigid tuning to a definite pitch (in contrast, the A-string on the violin is always tuned to 440 or 442hz) but what’s most important is how the strings are tuned in relation to each other. Although this is not a Japanese Folk song, I think it’s a great idea to choose the tuning according to the singer’s comfort zone.

A good rule of thumb is to tune your instrument over the base of C. This means, the big string will be tuned to C and the other strings according to the tuning of the song:

HonchĹŤshi: C-F-C

Niagari: C-G-C

Sansagari: C-F-Bb
