This is a Shinkyoku piece in the Sokyoku style from the Miyagi school . This piece was composed for shakuhachi by Miyagi Michio in ca. 1930 . This piece was composed for koto by Miyagi Michio in 1954 .

Izumi appears on the following albums:

Album	Shakuhachi	Koto	Shamisen
Art of the Koto - The music of Japan Played by Kimio Eto  (Listen)		Eto Kimio
A Spring Another composition by Mr. Eto, suggesting the play of fresh water gushing forth from a mountainside. Notice here, as in Mr. Eto's other compositions, that phrases and figures representative of both the Japanese and Western traditions have skillfully and harmoniously been brought together in music characteristic of the "New Japanese Music" movement. The extreme flexibility of pitch made possible by exerting pressure or tension below the bridges is particularly noticeable in this number.
Miyagi Michio Sakuhin Dai Zenshu - 08  (Listen)	Yes
Moon at Dawn  (Listen)	Koga Masayuki	Sunazaki Tomoko
