I love the traditional sound of the Koto and its gentle scales but as a western composer I feel inspired to bring my expertise to this sound it as a dream like quality that fits well with meditation and eating. This music is often featured in restaurants and peaceful relaxing perfect for westerners Keywords: restaurants cafes Chinese Asian Japanese Vietnamese Korean Thai Turkish Indian Pakistan take away dinners patrons customers relaxation unique western echoes The koto appeared in the Japanese court during the 8th century and was called the gakuso. Schools for the bourgeois were established in the 16th century. Two of these—Ikuta (started in the 17th century) and Yamada (opened in the 18th century) —continue to the present day. Solo (danmono) and chamber (sankyoku) music dominate the repertory, and in the latter form the koto player often sings as well.
Some contemporary composers have incorporated the koto into orchestral pieces, and some have used the 17-string bass koto (jushichigoto) invented by Miyagi Michio (1894–1956) of the Ikuta school. Long known as the national instrument of Japan, the koto has been popular from the earliest periods of Japanese musical history to the present day in ensemble, chamber, and solo repertoires; its physical structure, performance practice, and musical characteristics have become symbols of Japanese identity.
