These pieces are said to have

and not really a "composer." These pieces are said to have emerged in dreams as a gift from the Buddha.
KYOREI (Bell from the Great Void), from an old Chinese composition dating from the 7th century AD
KOKU (Flute in the Empty Sky), 14th century
MUKAIJI (Flute in the Misty Sea), 14th century
REIBO will be the introduction to these three traditional pieces as well as
some words of explanation.
