*''Japanese'': 掛合 ''(kakeai)''

''Kakeai'' is an antiphonal ("call and response") technique used in certain [[kabuki]] performances, in which singers and [[shamisen]] players from different traditions perform within the same piece. Some of the most typical combinations are ''[[nagauta]]'' & ''[[kiyomoto]]'', and ''kiyomoto'' & ''[[gidayu-bushi|gidayû]]''; a few pieces in the repertoire make use of three styles, such as ''nagauta'', ''kiyomoto'', and ''[[tokiwazu]]'', at once.
