"The Sun is ushered to bed", is a rural ceremony, which is performed daily. Two miko, or shrine maidens, dance slowly on both sides of the shrine and shake their small bell-trees or suzu with abrupt movements, always in a direction away from the sanctuary, to ward off evil spirits. A drummer beats alternately the do-naga-daiko and the tsuri-daiko. Only the protective (apotropaeic) maidens' dance and the percussion patterns have ancient traditions; the kagura-bue is a recent addition.

Recorded in Miho-jinja, Shimane prefecture, on July 31, 1957
