Ogi no Mato

扇の的

Geschichte (Miyata Kōhachirō):

The Folding Fan as a Target

This famous piece for voice and biwa is based on a complex legend similar to that of William Tell, in which a folding fan,
instead of the famous Swiss apple, serves as the target. Most biwa music is quite ancient. Voice and instrument in the narrative chants tend to complement each other as in Western recitative; the large ornamental leaps for the voice are characteristic of the genre.
