Preface

The Dawn of Music:
This music book was written out of two reasons and objectives. The first came from my hope to deepen the bond with music unique to my country by arrangements into guitar pieces. I grew up with these pieces, loved them as a child, and have felt close to them long before I became a musician. Looking back now, I realize that my encounter with Japanese folk ballads and school songs was the beginning of my professional music life even before I came to be strongly aware of my love of music. Another reason lies with my good old friend, a guitarist, Noriko Igeta: She asked me if I could arrange familiar Japanese folk and school songs for duos of guitar beginners and teachers. Her wish matched my long term plan to compose interesting ensemble work (not solo) for people who are studying guitar. Hence the title: The Dawn of Music - A Collection of Folk Ballads of Japan for Guitar Beginners and Teachers (in Duo). I hope this music book brings guitar lovers a new beginning and a new love of music.
