X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <p><strong>Speaker bio:</strong><br />Dr. LeR
 on Harrison is a visiting assistant professor at the University of Oregon w
 ho researches Japanese court poetry and its appropriations of Chinese poeti
 cs. He also has been playing gagaku (Japanese court music) for 11 years and
  researches the history of the music in Japan and its importation and growt
 h in America.</p><p><strong>Abstract:</strong><br />Gagaku (Japanese court 
 music) and Buddhism share some commonalities: both were imported into Japan
  from the Asian continent\; both have a long history in Japan\; and both we
 re parts of the lives of the nobles of the Imperial court. But the history 
 of gagaku and Buddhism also involves interconnection and interaction betwee
 n the two\, something that has yet to be discussed in English scholarship. 
 This presentation will provide a brief introduction to gagaku and the relat
 ionship between gagaku and Buddhism in different points of Japanese history
