The court dance and music introduced into Miyajima from Kyoto by Kiyomori Taira is dancing by the gagaku. Around 20 pieces including "Ryo-oh", "Nasori" "Manzai raku" and "Engi raku" are still handed down to Itsukushima Shrine from the latter period in the twelfth century.
The court dance and music is originally from India, Vietnam, China and the Korean Peninsura, but it does not exist any place other than Japan today.
Even it does not remain in India where is its birthplace, China, and the Korean Peninsula now. It is conserved in the Imperial Household Agency, Shitenno-ji Temple in Osaka, Itsukushima Shrine in Miyajima and other several places in Japan.
