Afterword

The koto is a major element of traditional Japanese music. During the roughly 1,300 years since its introduction from ancient China, Japanese have continued to listen to and play music for the koto. Koto music continues to be written and performed to this day by musicians in Japan and around the world.
The NDL Digital Collections contains a wealth of digitized material about the koto, including the music used in this exhibition. Those who are interested in learning more about the koto are welcome to browse our database for historical information about and musical scores for the koto.
