| Oiwake is
a type of folksong that originated in the remote mountainous region
of Shinshu in Japan. Over the years, travelling horse traders brought
them to the northern areas where they became very popular. These songs
resonate with a mournful quality capturing the isolation felt by those
living in such a remote cold area of Japan. |
