Flower Dance - Japanese Folk Melodies | ||
The sad melody of Hietsuki bushi stems from a folk song of Kumamoto in Kyushu. It is based upon the story of the Heike family, whose members hid themselves in the mountains after they were defeated in the Genji and Heike War. Poverty forced them to eat wild corn instead of rice. Heitsuki means "to thresh the corn with a wooden mallet"-the sound of which is simulated in the tsuzumi {small drum} accompaniment.
