To prevent the spread of new coronavirus infectious diseases at Yokohama Noh theater, it will be temporarily closed from February 27, and 5 performances such as “Yokohama Kyogendo” as well as workshops and tours will be canceled. When we were discussing what we could do as a Noh theater under such circumstances, Mr. Masataro Ito asked me to make a video of his past appearances on the Internet. In response to this proposal, we decided to release the archived video from the past. Free delivery on YouTube.

To begin with, in commemoration of the 40th anniversary of normalization of Japanese-Chinese diplomatic relations in 2012, a special performance by the Yokohama Noh Theater was performed by masters of the three strings, three lines, and the shamisen, “The instrument that traveled in the daytime-the three strings, the three lines, and the shamisen”. Sagimusume “is released. We will send you a video of Masataro Ito, a national treasure of Nagauta Shamisen, with a message from Masataro who is worried about the fact that he has been forced to cancel the performance and has no opportunity to touch classical performing arts.

This delivery is titled “Yokohama Noh Theater Archive Collection”, and from now on, “Tojiro Iden 12th”, “Yokohama Kyogendo”, and “Yokohama Noh theater tours and Noh workshops guided by Noh performers” Will be released one by one.
