Komagaku
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Komagaku (高麗楽) is a form of Gagaku, or court music, that appeared in Japan around the beginning of the Nara period (710-794). It originated in Korea [1] and is often played as a dance accompaniment.[2] In contrast to other forms of Gagaku, Komagaku uses no plucked string instruments, only winds and percussion. [3]
