What you can expect

Experience a variety of Japanese classical performing arts, which have a history of over hundreds of years. These performances are by top-notch performers who have handed down the authentic art form for over hundreds of years.

Experience the true essence of Japanese culture, not just imitation.

This is a performance presented by the National Theatre Japan, a Hall of Fame of classical performing arts, which has consistently supported Japan's classical performing arts since its opening in 1965.

Please see below for details of each performance :

[ KABUKI : Traditional Japanese Theatre Performance / second photo ]
Kabuki is the dramatic theatre which combines music and dance. It is one of Japan’s most typical traditional arts. This performing art contains exciting stories, beautiful scenes and other features that thrill audiences. Throughout its long history spanning hundreds of years, Kabuki has incorporated trends from each successive era, and continues to be a fresh performing art.

There are many things to see and do, such as the characteristic Kabuki performances and the gorgeous costumes.

[ BUNRAKU : Traditional Puppet Performance / first photo ]
Bunraku is one of Japan's representative traditional theater arts for adults, inscribed on UNESCO's Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. It is a closely collaborative form which synchronizes narrative recitation, shamisen music and puppetry in performance. Recitation of stories by a narrator letting out his voice with all of his might, the dynamic and delicate sound of the shamisen, and the beautiful movements of the puppets astound the audience.

Featuring this outstanding unique style, Bunraku is praised as very sophisticated puppet theater arts in the world.

[ HOGAKU : Traditional Japanese Music / third photo ]
Why don't you listen to HOGAKU produced by the National Theatre of Japan, a hall of fame for Japanese classical performing arts?
HOGAKU is Japanese classical music composed on Japanese instruments, and most of the pieces that have been handed down to the present day were composed during the Edo period (1603-1868).
In this concert, we will present four masterpieces composed in Edo (present-day Tokyo) in the late 18th century, when Edo culture was in full bloom.

Why not enjoy the mood of Edo through sound?

[ SHOMYO : Japanese Buddhist Chant / fourth photo ]
Shōmyō is the music that has long been performed at traditional Japanese Buddhist ceremonies. With many of its elements serving as the foundation for other Japanese traditional performing arts, it is one of thw oldest music genres, likened to Gregorian chant in Western classical music. Normally, you can only hear the Shōmyō at temples, but this time you can enjoy it casually as part of a concert. There is an explanation in the first half, so even those who are hearing about Shōmyō for the first time can enjoy it with ease.

We provide you an unusual experience.
