Provincial performing arts in Akita prefecture called “Sasara” can be sketchily grouped into two styles and respective manner of Sasaras are mainly distributed in Northern and Central (Senboku) regions of the prefecture. Additionally, each local settlement has characteristic manner of Sasara, and each Sasara is supposed to have been established under influence of different kind of Sasaras performed in other regions, which have been brought on by “Wakaze”, labors of farming families, and transmitted by some reasons. In Tsuzureko (Kita-Akita city) and Fujikoto (Fujisato town) areas located on the Northern part of the prefecture, Sasaras have been separately handed down by both “Kami(Upper) and Shimo(Lower) communities. Rivalry between the communities as well as a system encouraging children to participate in Sasaras could have contributed to carrying on the tradition. In these areas, some community associations are taking certain role in handing down provincial performing arts across the entire community and cultivating successors, which might be a good role model to maintain the traditions going.

In Japanese Folk Songs, minute ornamental tones named 'kobushi' (short tune) are used. And 'kobushi'were not used so often when Japanese Folk Songs were sung by unison.The principles of the usages of 'kobushi' in the melodies are as follows.1. It is used when specific tone in the melody has long duration.2. It repeats the part of the fundamental melody that appeared just before.3. Some part of the fundamental melody chages into 'kobushi'.4. It complicates the part of the fundamental melody.5. It can become the part of the fundamental melody.The role and the function of 'kobushi' are to give the unstableness and the strain both rhythmicallyand melodically so that the unstableness and the strain are resolved at the next tone that follows 'kobushi'.
