Nomura Anchô was the founder of the [[Nomura-ryu|Nomura-ryû]] school or style of classical Okinawan ''uta-[[sanshin]]'' music, the largest such school active today.
Nomura's teacher, [[Chinen Sekko|Chinen Sekkô]]<!--知念績高--> ([[1761]]-[[1828]]), was taught in turn by [[Yakabi Choki|Yakabi Chôki]] ([[1716]]-[[1775]]), who is credited with developing the ''[[kunkunshi]]'' notation system, and whose Tô-ryû style of ''uta-sanshin'' served as the basis for both Nomura's and the other schools of classical music prominent today.
Anchô served three kings of the [[Kingdom of Ryukyu|Ryûkyû Kingdom]] - [[Sho Ko|Shô Kô]], [[Sho Iku|Shô Iku]], and [[Sho Tai|Shô Tai]] - as a court musician. At the orders of Shô Tai, he presented the king in [[1869]] with a compilation of ''kunkunshi'' notation for over two hundred musical pieces. This compilation continues to serve as the basis of the Nomura repertoire today, along with an appendix volume created in the [[Meiji period]], and a system of notation for the vocals, developed by Serei Kunio in the 1930s.
Nomura Anchô died at the age of 67, in [[1871]].
