The Origin of Japanese Music -- An Introduction to gagaku for Beginners --
Gagaku is a style of music and dance in which the ancient forms still remain alive even after the passage of centuries. They preserve the old form that originated 1300 years ago. Also they preserve Chinese and Korean music that came to Japan about the 5th century and were compiled in the 8th century into Shiika-kangen (literally means “poems, songs, flutes and strings”). Gagaku is the oldest song and music in the world.
