Free Traditional Japanese Music

Can you point me to traditional Japanese music on the web? Looking for free downloads.
I am planning a cheesy indoor sushi picnic as a surprise for my girlfriend.
There will be kitschy stuff like a paper umbrellas and stuff, we'll be sitting on the floor, there will be loads of take-away sushi.
Now the multimedia part: I've downloaded a bunch of cliché photos from the interwebs (temples, Fujiyamas, Tokio at night - the works) that I will project as a slideshow at the living room wall.
What's missing is the soundtrack:
I am looking for traditional Japanese music on the meditative side (flutes, harps, instruments that I don't even know etc.) - no heavy drumming.
I've already spent some money on the decoration and I thought that at least I could get the music for free.
Google-fu failed me. Any free licence Japanes music out there for me to download?
Thanks!

There are some links to a few nice pieces for Shakuhachi (bamboo flute) here
