*What is Sigin?:
Sigin is the recitation of traditional Chinese poems, and Japanese poems with some of the Japanese artistic expressions．Among Japanes poems, we have Tanka( 31 Japanese alphabetical characters) and Haiku(17 characters and Shintaishi(New Poems by spoken language since Meiji era).
When we recite the Sigin, we extend vowel tone longer, and add unique melody, which cause peculiar artistic impression. The scales is 5 which is popular in Japanese music. And its rhythm is not pre-determined, however Ma(é–“) which is taken among phrases in the poem is thought to be a rhysm.
In Japan, kanshi(漢詩)had first been arranged in Nara Era(1,300years ago) and kanshi culture made a bloom in Edo era (18-19century).
