Wonky

I am playing a traditional Zuni song on the Native American cedar flute, learned from a book and recording by Carlos Nakai.  I'm also doing all the birdsongs by whistling on three tracks.

Ho Rai

蓬莱

This is a piece of genre Koten from the Kokutaiji School.

History (Jin Nyodo): 

Kokutai-ji: HORAI

1. About the title:

The title probably derives from Mount Horai, the mountain of the spirits in the Eastern sea, which according to Chinese myth is a land where holy people live, free from old age and death. It is a keikyoku ("auspicious piece") and was traditionally played on the anniversary of the death of the founder of the sect. Kokutai-ji is a temple of the Rinzai sect, located on the outskirts of Takaoka City in Toyama Prefecture. Originally it was not a komuso temple, but at some point it became a base for komuso priests. After the abolishment of the Fuke sect, a group called the Myoon ("beautiful sound") Kyokai was formed at this temple (after the war the name was shortened to Myoon-kai) which continued to play classical shakuhachi honkyoku. Besides this piece there are also versions of San'ya and Reibo. Jin Nyodo learned this piece from Tahara Myogen and Takagi Myogai.

2. Structure of the piece

The whole piece proceeds with a melody that rises and falls, falls and rises seemingly without end. Built out of this infinite melody, its tempo is light and relaxed: there are several dan-like divisions but throughout the piece there is practically no change in rhythm.

3. Special features of the piece:

The piece is filled with a feeling of lonely remoteness. The smoothly flowing mood of the piece is quite appropriate for it to be played on occasions of liturgical ceremony.
