Throughout its history, traditional Japanese music has been influenced by various cultural, religious, and social factors. Despite these changes, it has retained its distinctive character mainly due to its geographical and societal nature and it continues to be cherished as an integral part of Japan's cultural identity, still influencing artists today.
