Gagaku music (Gojouraku-kyuu) from Japan について・・・
Gagaku was for me a strange type of music, performed by flute type instuments (from left to right: ryuteki, hichiriki and shō): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gagaku
From this link the following visualization can perhaps be important to understand the music:
"The sound of the ryūteki is said to represent the dragons which ascend the skies between the heavenly lights (represented by the shō) and the people of the earth (represented by the hichiriki)"
The performance is an abbreviated version of a piece called: etenraku. And it stitle is: Gojouraku-kyuu
