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.
