Sakura Theme and Variations by Yuquijiro Yocoh (1925-2009)
"Sakura Sakura" (さくら さくら, "Cherry blossoms, cherry blossoms"), also known as "Sakura", is a traditional Japanese folk song depicting spring, the season of cherry blossoms. Contrary to popular belief, the song did not originate in ancient times; it was a popular, urban melody of the Edo period and was adopted as a piece for beginning koto students in the Tokyo Academy of Music Collection of Japanese Koto Music issued in 1888 (in English) by the Department of Education. The song has been popular since the Meiji period, and the lyrics in their present form were attached then. It is often sung in international settings as a song representative of Japan, and many electronic crosswalks in Japan play the melody as "guidance music".
Yukihiro Yoko (Yuquijiro Yocoh), a classical guitarist, made an arrangement for his instrument, a theme with variations, in which he uses different guitar techniques to imitate the sound of the koto (a traditional Japanese stringed musical instrument).

When John Williams came to Japan for the first time to have his concert in1963, Mr. Yokowo showed his manuscript of Sakura variations to John. John liked this piece very much and he started to play this piece in his concerts and eventually recorded this variations for CBS/SONY. His performance is base on the first version by Yokowo except the harmonics variation. This video score is from the revised version by Yokowo. This variations became one of the most well-known guitar pieces originated from a song of Japanese Edo era owing to John and Yokowo.
