Among Japanese flutes, shinobue is the most popular and familiar to common people. Its traditionally been played in hayashi style ensembles at local festivals and in ensembles accompanying local theatre. The general public also used to sing folk songs with shinobue accompaniment before the arrival of western instruments.
