Bell Ringing in the Empty Sky, A |
尺八 : 山口 五郎 | |
Bell Ringing in the Empty Sky - of the Kinko school, is one of the three oldest pieces, known as the koden-sankyoku, of the fuke shakuhachi tradition. Respected as sacred pieces, these are the most difficult to play in the repertoire, since they are so profound in religious expression. Koku-Reibo is said to have been originally composed by a Zen priest named Kyochiku when he attained enlightenment in a dream; in the Fuke shakuhachi, it is called simply Koku, The Empty Sky, portraying a happy, peaceful feeling of awakening. Kinko Kurosawa heard this music in one of the temples at Nagasaki in Kyushu. He was very much moved by its depth and clarity, and arranged it into a musical piece which is to this day the most played piece of all the repertoire of shakuhachi music.

Emptiness of the Sky, The |
尺八 : Andreas Fuyu Gutzwiller | |
This is one of the three central pieces in the Kinko school of shakuhachi playing. The title means 'The emptiness of the sky'. According to legends, this piece has its origin in the monk Kichiku, who lived in the second half of the 13th century. The piece is said to have been imparted to him in a dream on Mount Asama. The additional designation Reibo ('Yearning for the bell [of the Zen master Fuke]') indicates a piece that enjoys a high standing in the hierarchy of the music of the Kinko school. | ||

Koku Reibo, one of the most highly regarded Zen pieces, is also one of the most technically demanding. This Honkyoku was performed at ceremonial events where the Shakuhachi took the place of sutra chanting and was used in Blowing Zen, an aesthetic practice in every Fuke Sect temple.

The most representative composition of the thirty six instrumental solos or duets which make up the repertoire of the Kinko school is called Kinkoryu Honkyoku. This is also one of the representative Shakuhachi solo pieces adapted from the repertoire of the Fuke Shakuhachi. Regarding the title, Koku means heaven, and Reibo means to yearn. Actually, this music was composed by an unknown priest yearning to ring the bell previously rung by Fuke Zenji, the founder of the Fuke sect. It can be heard, as the story goes, in heaven. There is no specific musical form in the Western sense for this piece. The composition was definitely composed by Kurosawa Kinko (1710-1771). The recording here is an abbreviation of about one third the original composition. | ||

Zen Music |
尺八 : 山口 五郎 | |
They say that this piece was composed symbolizing longings for bell (Taku) ringing in the empty sky. A legend says that in the T'ang Dynasty Fuke Zenji, founder of Fuke-shu (a sect of Buddhism), used to walk to the streets with bell ringings, and after his death a disciple of his composed the music in memory of him and bells. They also say that this was composed by Kichiku, a disciple of Hoto Kokushi who introduced Fuke-shu into Japan in the Kamakura Period (1185-1333). Kichiku was practicing austerities in Asama-yama, Ise, when he heard some strange beautiful music in his visionary state. Afterwards he composed the piece. Whichever the truth may be, this piece is the oldest among the Kinko-ryu Shakuhachi repertory. It is (or, was) highly religious in character. KUROSAWA Kinko, founder of the school, is said to have been instructed form Ikkeishi of Shoju-ken, Nagasaki. | ||
Zen Music - II |
尺八 : 初世 納富 寿童 | |
This is among the three oldest pieces in the Honkyoku tradition and therefore is important. Koku means 'the empty sky', and Reibo 'longing for the sounds of bells'. It is religious in nature, composed to express the unearthly feelings in hearing bells ringing exquisitely in the sky and yearning for them.
