Ensemble Nipponia - Japan Traditional Vocal and Instrumental Music Сякухати : Miyata Kōhachirō
The original melody of this piece is a lullaby from the Edo period (Edo was the name for Tokyo before it became the capital of Japan). Although similar to the melodic construction of other types of music from the same period, its simple phrases reveal a folk origin. This arrangement for six players is by the Ensemble's artistic director, Minoru Miki.
