The purpose of this study is to clarify the aspects of "nori" through the analysis of children's melody-making by examining the changes in children's musical expressions after they have been introduced to the rhythm of "Awa Odori". The results have shown that "the original musical buds" exist inside Japanese-speaking children. "The original musical buds" here refers to the spontaneous appearance of musical expressions that matches the rhythm of traditional Japanese music.
