Abstract
This paper explores the formation process of the Yamato school go-eika in the 1920s-30s. Go-eika is a genre of Japanese hymns sung in Buddhist temples. Today there are various schools of go-eika, among which the Yamato school is the first originating school from which other schools descended.<br>The Yamato school was founded by Chikumatsu Yamasaki in 1921. He invented 11 melodies as the main repertoire of the Yamato school go-eika. He then founded the institution called Yamato-ko, which consists of a go-eika grand master and his pupils. Chikumatsu became the master himself and instructed his pupils how to sing go-eika.<br>Through the establishment of this institution Yamato-ko, a new transmission system was formed. First, the Yamato-ko published songbooks with the text and notation of go-eika, setting the model performance for the pupils through its national publication. Second, the Yamato-ko established a hierarchical structure for go-eika singers. In this hierarchy, when singers pass the examinations for go-eika techniques, they are awarded a higher level of proficiency. This ranking system is similar to the iemoto system, which is characteristic of traditional Japanese arts. Third, the Yamato-ko periodically held nationwide contests for go-eika techniques. These endeavors helped the Yamato-ko to expand into a large-scale group, transmitting go-eika nationally.<br>The Yamato-ko was able to become a nationwide institution because the hierarchical structure like the iemoto system was introduced into it. In the Yamato-ko, when the pupils are awarded specific grades of proficiency, they are licensed to instruct go-eika on behalf of the master. Therefore, the master is able to gain more pupils without instructing them directly. Such a relationship between the master and pupils is typical of the iemoto system. Through this system, the number of go-eika singers increased in the Yamato school, and the Yamato-ko enlarged nationally.
