Furthermore after the end of the Edo period, when so (or koto) songs became independent from jiuta again, this form of so (or koto) works was actively composed, such as "Chidori no kyoku" (a song for plover), "Tokoyo no kyoku" (a song for eternity), "Shin Takasago song" (literally, "new version of "Takasago"), "Kaede no hana" (a maple flower), "Mikuni no homare" (the glory of the country), "Meiji shochikubai," "Hototogisu no kyoku" (a song for a little cuckoo), "Aki no koto no ha" (Words for autumn) and so on.
更に幕末以降、箏曲が地歌から再独立する際にも、『千鳥の曲』をはじめとして、『常世の曲』、『新高砂』、『楓の花』、『御国の誉』、『明治松竹梅』、『時鳥の曲』、『秋の言の葉』など、この形式の箏曲がさかんに作られた。
