Song origins - Kakyokugenryu

Japanese: 歌曲源流 - かきょくげんりゅう

A collection of poems from the late Yi dynasty in Korea. Also known as Haedong Gravure (Haedong Music) or Cheonggyeong Music (Cheonggyeong Music). Co-edited by Park Hyo-kwan, a poet of the reign of Cheoljong and Gojong (1850-1906), and his disciple An Min-young, and published in 1876. It is considered one of the three great collections of poems, along with Cheonggyeong Yeongeun (Cheonggyeong Youngeom) (1728) and Haedong Gayo (Haedong Song) (1763). It contains sijo and lyrics from the end of the Goryeo dynasty to the present time. Conventional song scores did not have an order or names for singing, but this book divides the songs into categories such as Bajo and Gyeonggyeong, and also includes markings for the pitch and length of each stave.
