Shin-Kinuta
新砧
История (Kitahara Kōzan II):
| This anonymous piece belongs to the Kinuta form, (which means "fabric fulling"), like others such as Godan-kinuta, Sandan-kinuta, etc. Its title originates from the repertoire of No theatre, and refers to the love of a wife for her husband, who has been gone three years to deal with legal matters in the Capital. The shamisen depicts her, working at fulling fabrics while she waits for his return, and describes her feelings, while the koto evokes through a single, sustained note, both the long wait and the repetitive rhythm of her work. This piece has been conserved and passed down by the Yamada school. It comprises four sections, and requires considerable technical skills from the instrumentalists, which is why it is now less frequently played at concerts. |
