Yamada Kengyō
山田 検校
Compositor & Koto
|
A blind musician who was the founder of the Yamada style of koto songs. It is said that he learned the koto kumiuta by studying under the doctor Yamada Matsuguro, the author of "Koto Daiisho", at the age of 15 (1772) under the Hase Tomiken school. It is said that he tried to make the Joruri shamisen music that was popular in Edo at that time, such as Kato-bushi and Ichichubushi, into a koto, and composed his maiden work "Enoshima no Kumiuta" ("Enoshima") at the age of 21 (1778). The fact that his new koto song spread throughout Edo by overwhelming the Ikuta-style local songs and koto songs of Edo is described in "Spider's Thread" by Kyozan Iwase.
