The January performance of the Kanzekai regular Noh begins with Okina, who lives at the beginning of the year. As you know, "Okina" is also called "Shikisanban" and has strong elements of prayer and ritual, which are the roots of Noh, and is often performed in a changed place such as New Year's Day or the opening of a theater. Okina, Chitose, and Sanbaso pray for Taihei Tenka, peace of the country, and rich harvest. Noh-like friends say that this little tension and freshness can't be said. Next, "Kureha" was performed, so it was quite lying for 2 hours and 40 minutes. Next, after Kyogen "Treasure Hammer", Taro Kanjin is a little relaxed with a story that is deceived as a hammer with drums and sold, nine songs such as dance "Yashima", "Takasago" and "Hagoromo" are Yaemon Yamashina. The heavyweights of the Kanzekai, such as the gate, Tetsunojo Kanze, and Gensho Umewaka, dance. When he said to the neighbor, "There are many dances," he said, "This is a replacement for New Year's greetings at the Tokyo Kanzekai." It's good.
Finally, the congratulatory Noh "Iwafune" ended at 5:40. The break was 20 minutes, so I continued to sit for 4 hours and 20 minutes. The neighbors can be seen from Sendai and come to Tokyo for theaters and concerts 40 times a year, or "It's really convenient to go from Shoto to Ginza." I'm 80 years old. "The effect of the dance or the spine stretched, and I thought I had to do my best.
