  • I not only got the chance to experience a Noh performance in Osaka, but I was able to go behind the scenes and see how Japan's oldest musical theatre is put together.

    Omoshiroi! What a great experience! Growing up in Hawai'i we'd take either set of grandparents to see movies from Japanese on Sundays. The fue and drum often accented scenes from samurai/chambara/costume dramas.

    It’s fascinating learning about a country’s traditional art forms. The masks are a bit frightening to me, but it’s cool how the mask you wore changed expression, depending on the angle.

    I'm learning traditional Japanese dance in Japan, and I can see how it evolved out of Noh and kabuki traditions, definitely. A lot of the same things are involved-- ultimate respect for the 'butai' (dance floor) and no regular socks permitted, respect for the items and props used, stomps used during the dance at certain points, and certain set poses, gestures, and movements that remain the same for a certain dance even between different schools of dance. When we had our maizome last year and she broke out the ki (two pieces of wood that are struck together to make a loud sound, used in kabuki and dance) and that sound I had heard before, but this time, up close, it cut straight through me. I had chills! Coming from a colonized country without much of its own culture aside from closed cultural practices among indigenous peoples, I really do appreciate the culture that Japan has gone to great lengths to preserve.

    The tale of Genji was shown through kabuki I saw it once on a TH-cam channel it was fascinating especially as I had been reading the book at the time. Truly we are witnessing that last great mono culture left in the world today, alas it too is passing, as multiculturalism encroaches this last bastion. It has happened almost in every European country, where their cultural past is now consigned to museums and information centers, as the proverb goes "something is lost, and something gained; but what is gained is hard to define.

      there is still a lot of culture the thing is if it is very local you might not even notice as it is just the standard for you. or you might not go to those places where it is being expressed.
      Like the play with in this video. A European version of this could be opera in combination with ballet.
      Or more if you take more local the way in the Netherlands we celebrate king or queen's day. that is very typical Dutch you don't see anywhere else.
      A day filled with a lot of both nation wide but also very local traditions.
