The titles of those interesting pieces are difficult to get because they are only given in Japanese language. But I think that all the pieces are original compositions by <strong>Yuasa Takashi<\/strong> und <strong>Yoshida Goshi<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p id=\"watch-headline-title\">\n<p>Yuasa Takashi and Yoshida Goshi have been playing together as the duo <strong>Marionette <\/strong>for many years &#8211; with portuguese guitar and liuto or guitar. The have played especially the Fado music from Portgal. They have recorded many CDs and travelled around the world with success.<\/p>\n<p>In 2006\u00a0 Yoshida has founded the<strong> Marionette Mandolin Orchestra<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>In 2006 Yoshida produced the  Marionette Mandolin Orchestra, a group made up of 100 musicians performing on a variety of instruments, including the mandolin. The group  experiments with new styles of mandolin music.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>On the homepage of Marionette you can find information about the duo as well as information about the orchestra. You can also find a list of compositions that are available for purchase.<\/p>\n<p>The music by the Marionette Mandolin Orchestras sounds very nice, with influence from folk music &#8211; I can hear Spanish and Portuguese influences &#8211; but also with influences from pop music. I think that those pieces are interesting for other mandolin orchestras, especially for young players.<\/p>\n<p>The Marionette Mandolin Orchestra is located in the city of\u00a0 <strong>Takatsuki<\/strong>, Takatsuki is located just between Osaka and Kyoto.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Takatsuki (\u9ad8\u69fb\u5e02, Takatsuki-shi<sup>?<\/sup>) is a city located in Osaka, Japan.<\/p>\n<p>As of 2010, the city has an estimated population of 353,881 and the density of 3,360 persons per km\u00b2. The total area is 105.31 km\u00b2.<\/p>\n<p>The city was founded on January 1, 1943 and is located almost  directly between Kyoto and Osaka. Due to the convenience of being 13-15  minutes away from Kyoto and Osaka by train respectively, the city has  developed exponentially during the last 20 years. It is a commuter town, with people commuting to both Kyoto and Osaka.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I had some problems to decide which pieces I should add as examples &#8211; I recommend to listen to all the 10 pieces if you have enough time!<\/p>\n<p>Here are three examples:<\/p>\n<h1 id=\"watch-headline-title\">\u5c0f\u7d44\u66f2\uff62\u3075\u306a\u5c4b\uff63<\/h1>\n<p>Suite &#8220;Funabashi store&#8221;<br \/>\n<object classid=\"clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000\" width=\"480\" height=\"385\" codebase=\"http:\/\/download.macromedia.com\/pub\/shockwave\/cabs\/flash\/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0\"><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\" \/><param name=\"allowscriptaccess\" value=\"always\" \/><param name=\"src\" value=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/ZeZ9k71kuiM?fs=1&amp;hl=de_DE\" \/><param name=\"allowfullscreen\" value=\"true\" \/><\/object><\/p>\n<h1>\u6771\u897f\u5de1\u793c\uff5e\u30b6\u30d3\u30a8\u30eb\u5e7b\u8996\uff5e<\/h1>\n<p>Nishi  Azuma &#8211; Halluzinationen &#8211; Xavier Wallfahrt<\/p>\n<p><object classid=\"clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000\" width=\"480\" height=\"385\" codebase=\"http:\/\/download.macromedia.com\/pub\/shockwave\/cabs\/flash\/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0\"><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\" \/><param name=\"allowscriptaccess\" value=\"always\" \/><param name=\"src\" value=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/jZtV5awpvk4?fs=1&amp;hl=de_DE\" \/><param name=\"allowfullscreen\" value=\"true\" \/><\/object><\/p>\n<h2>\u30de\u30f3\u30c9\u30ea\u30f3\u9152\u5834\u306e\u591cVersion2010<\/h2>\n<p>Mandoline Bar Night<br \/>\n<object classid=\"clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000\" width=\"480\" height=\"385\" codebase=\"http:\/\/download.macromedia.com\/pub\/shockwave\/cabs\/flash\/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0\"><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\" \/><param name=\"allowscriptaccess\" value=\"always\" \/><param name=\"src\" value=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/7-ecs9glbZI?fs=1&amp;hl=de_DE\" \/><param name=\"allowfullscreen\" value=\"true\" \/><\/object><\/p>\n<h2>Marionette &#8211; Yuasa Takashi und Yoshida Goshi<\/h2>\n<p>Videos with the duo Marionette &#8211; portuguese guitar and liuto or guitar<br \/>\n<object classid=\"clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000\" width=\"480\" height=\"385\" codebase=\"http:\/\/download.macromedia.com\/pub\/shockwave\/cabs\/flash\/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0\"><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\" \/><param name=\"allowscriptaccess\" value=\"always\" \/><param name=\"src\" value=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/_2-G-5vABzA?fs=1&amp;hl=de_DE\" \/><param name=\"allowfullscreen\" value=\"true\" \/><\/object><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"watch-headline-title\">Guitarra Portuguesa\uff0fCoimbra \u30b3\u30a4\u30f3\u30d6\u30e9\uff0fMarionette<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=ViIAy1fgKlY\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=ViIAy1fgKlY<\/a><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"watch-headline-title\">Guitarra Portuguesa\uff0fLonge ao Zipangu \u5357\u86ee\u6e21\u6765\uff0fMarionette<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=s4BHEy_-xlc\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=s4BHEy_-xlc<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Further Informationen<\/h2>\n<p>Youtube channel of the Marionette Mandolin Orchestra: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/Marionetteorchestra\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/Marionetteorchestra<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Homepage Marionette (Yuasa Takashi and Yoshida Goshi): <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wix.com\/marionette_japan\/marionette\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.wix.com\/marionette_japan\/marionette<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Japanese homepage of Marionette, google translation to English: <a href=\"http:\/\/translate.google.de\/translate?js=n&amp;prev=_t&amp;hl=de&amp;ie=UTF-8&amp;layout=2&amp;eotf=1&amp;sl=ja&amp;tl=en&amp;u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.asahi-net.or.jp%2F~QN7Y-UMI%2F\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/translate.google.de\/translate?js=n&amp;prev=_t&amp;hl=de&amp;ie=UTF-8&amp;layout=2&amp;eotf=1&amp;sl=ja&amp;tl=en&amp;u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.asahi-net.or.jp%2F~QN7Y-UMI%2F<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Marionette Mandolin Orchestra from Japan has recently added 10 videos to its youtube channel.
