*''Japanese'': 舞楽 ''(bugaku)''
''Bugaku'' is a classical Japanese form of Imperial court dance.
Like ''[[gagaku]]'' court music, which is divided into Chinese- and Korean-derived forms (''Tôgaku'' and ''Komagaku''), ''bugaku'' is divided into three categories: ''kuniburi-no-mai'' (native Japanese dances), ''Sa-no-mai'' (dances of the left, derived from those of the [[Tang Dynasty]] first introduced in [[698]]), and ''U-no-mai'' (dances of the right, derived from those of Korea). The Chinese-style dances typically use red costumes, while the Korean-style ones use green costumes.
The Chinese-style dances are typically accompanied by three types of flutes (''[[hichiriki]]'', ''[[ryuteki|ryûteki]]'', and ''[[sho|shô]]'') and percussion instruments such as the ''[[kakko]]'', ''[[shoko|shôko]]'', and ''[[taiko]]'', without string instruments. The Korean-style dances, the ''shô'' and ''ryûteki'' are replaced by the Korean-style flute (''[[komabue]]''), and the ''san-no-tsuzumi'' instead of ''kakko''.
