Pieces of music of debayashi (an onstage ensemble) above a certain length (interlude) are also referred to as aikata, each of which is usually given a title like 'Azuma Hakkei' (The Eight Views of the East) and 'Tsuru Kame' (Crane and Turtle).
また、出囃子ではある程度以上の長さを備えた音楽的なまとまり部分（間奏部）を合方と呼び、「吾妻八景」や「鶴亀」といった標題がつけられる事が多い。
