大和楽 Daiwagaku: Great Peace Melody | Robin Tamura Shakuhachi

Daiwa-Gaku is a piece composed by the great Shakuhachi Master of the 20th Century, Jin Nyodo. The piece is of the few that have been composed in the modern era, and have been accepted into the ranks of the great traditional Honkyoku. While Daiwa Gaku literally means "the great piece"; it also speaks to the four seasons of the year, the four times of the day, and the four stages of a man's life. The title derives from the ancient teaching" good manners are the beginning of heaven; music (gaku) is the harmony (wa) of heaven." Jin Nyodo has said this piece was written as a basic instructional piece for the Shakuhachi, and that all of the basic sounds of the instrument are utilized and their arrangement is endowed with symbolic meaning-comparing and contrasting the transitions found in human life, time and the seasons.
