  • Book Description

    'Tang Music' from China survives in Japan in a substantial body of manuscripts. The series Music from the Tang Court transcribes and comments on this music as it survives in its earliest sources, revealing surprising evidence, presented in this seventh volume, for ancient interconnections in music of different cultures.

  • Product Description

    The series Music from the Tang Court considers a repertory of music at least 1400 years old. During the two centuries before 841 the Japanese Court borrowed a large amount of secular entertainment music from China. "Tang Music" (Togaku) survives in Japan in a substantial body of manuscripts, but is transformed in character in contemporary performance. This edition transcribes and comments on the music as it survives in its earliest sources and this process has revealed surprising evidence, presented in this seventh volume, for ancient interconnections in music of different cultures.
