about

青森の山村でうたわれてきた祝い唄。毎年尺八の伴奏のため師匠といっていた山唄の全国大会。その会場である岩木山の中腹から見渡す津軽平野の清々しさを、この曲を吹くたびに思い出す。
尺八 ：蝦名宇摩

This is the festival song to god of the forest based on mountain worship. YAMA means mountain and UTA means song in Japanese.

The instrument played in this song is called Shakuhachi.The shakuhachi is a Japanese end-blown flute.It was originally introduced from China into Japan in the 6th century and underwent a resurgence in the early Edo Period. The shakuhachi is traditionally made of bamboo, but versions now exist in ABS and hardwoods. It was used by the monks of the Fuke school of Zen Buddhism in the practice of suizen (blowing meditation).
