“Noh” and “Kyougen”
2017年06年02日 | diary
On May 29, about sixty of us went to ASTERPLAZA and enjoyed Noh and Kyougen, which is one of the oldest traditional arts of Japan. It began in the Muromachi period (1333-1573 CE).
ASTERPLAZA has a magnificent stage for Noh and Kyogen, and the pine tree drawn in front of the stage is impressive. Stages for Noh and Kyogen have their own roofs. Look at the picture. We heard that it is because Noh and Kyogen were originally played outdoors.
As Noh and Kyogen are played in the old Japanese language, we had worried if we would understand it. However, we were able to enjoy it more than we had expected.
Please look forward to our blog being updated.
