From Wikipedia
Saibara (催馬楽) is a genre of accompanied vocal Japanese court music that existed during the Heian period in the Nara and Kyoto regions. It draws from traditional folk music (fūzokuuta (風俗歌)) of the Nara period and is accompanied by togaku instruments, with the exception of the uchimono (打物; 'percussion instruments'), which are replaced by shakubyoshi (笏拍子), wooden sticks used for keeping rhythm.
