It is said that Gake Kagura and Daisaku Kagura are two sides of the same coin, and the programs are almost the same, with about 40 pieces each handed down. Gaku Kagura is based on five beats and specializes in the brave and lively ``aramai'', while Daisai Kagura is based on seven beats and specializes in slow and delicate ``onnamai''. It was designated as a national important intangible folk cultural property in 1976, and was registered as a UNESCO intangible cultural heritage in 2009.
