流謫
| [Genre] | Modern Honkyoku |
| [School] | Chikuho Ryû |
History (Riley Kōho Lee):
| Exile This piece is said to have been composed by Sakai Chikuho I early this century, and if so, is not a classical honkyoku, which by definition were anonymously created within an oral tradition rather than composed by a known individual. It is considered a classic, nevertheless. Much of the beauty of this piece is in its trance-inducing final section, which fades away into nothingness. Performed on a 2.4 shaku length flute. |
