Shamisen is a traditional Japanese stringed instrument that is used to play a variety of musical styles. It is most commonly associated with the folk music of Japan, but it is also used in a variety of other genres, including classical, jazz, and pop. The instrument has three strings and is usually played with a plectrum. The sound of the shamisen is often described as a combination of a banjo and a guitar. The instrument is often used to accompany singing and dancing, and is a popular accompaniment to kabuki theater.
