『Yaegoromo』

Composer Kotou Ishikawa

　　Jiuta[Yagoromo]  

Composer Koto Ishikawa of Kyoto (year of Bunsei)

It is a song associated with clothes from the "hundred poems of a hundred poets Ogura",

Singing each in order of the four seasons.

it is a piece of music with distinguished personality of 『Jiuta Tegotomono 』

 a famous tune of the ancient and modern times.

[Kimi ga tame...] of the beginning of the song,

The feeling of restraining the high tension of entering into the world of Kokinshu,

which I am very fond of.

,

After enjoy playing the famousTegoto
while tasting each scene one by one

The next part goes[Aki no ta no]...

singing until the part of[Kirigirisu naki ya simoya no samusiro... ]

After the part of the "kirigirisu=cricket"finally it is the "hyakubyoushi=100 beats"
→the part presented here.

In the busy days of nowadays

I tend to play parts extracting from different songs、

however it is always best to sing the atouta after playing the whole song.

It is very difficult tune, but it is good to sing well someday.

[Koromo katashiki hitori kamo nemu...]this part repeats twice.

When you play this twice you will get the sense of "All is vanity諸行無常"

Finally finishing with leaving a lingering sound calmly...

This is the traditional taste of the traditional Japanese classical music.

（Lyrics） Kimi ga tame haru no no ni dete wakana　tsumu ,waga koromote ni yuki huri tsutsu. (From chapter of Kokinnsyu ) Haru sugite,Natsu ki ni kerasi sirotae no,kotomo hosutehu ama no kaguyama. (From chapter of Sinn kokinnsyu ,A Vol. 3 summer song,The Emperor Jitou ) Miyosino no yama no akikaze sayo hukete,hurusato samuki koromo utsu nari.
