"Izumo Oiwake" - Izumo Oiwake

Japanese: 《出雲追分》 - いずもおいわけ
"Izumo Oiwake" - Izumo Oiwake

... Among the modern folk songs named "oiwake," there are those with lively shamisen accompaniment such as "Shinano Oiwake" and those with a slower tempo in the style of a horse-carrying song.

The fact that the former oiwake-bushi with shamisen accompaniment was the original tone can be inferred from the existence of works called "Esashi Mitsukudairi" and "Matsumae Mitsukudairi," which are prototypes of the latter and directly follow the lyrics and backing music of "Shinano Oiwake."...
