Starting from the outdoor screening of the opening event “『Bohemian Rhapsody』 on August 18.2019.the 「2nd Edo Machi Taito Geigaku Festival&quot」is still a great success.and the closing event 『Geigasane Maigasa』 I met!
This time, we have covered the event that took place on February 15, so please take a look.

Opening ceremony

The closing event of the 「2nd “Edo Town Taito Geigaku Festival」 started with the opening ceremony.
The ceremony began with greetings from Mr. Yasuhisa Watanabe, Chairman of the Edo Machitoto Geito Festival, Mr. Yukio Hattori, Mayor of Taito City, and Mr. Takeshi Ishizuka, Chairman of the Taito City Assembly.
After the photo session by the performers, each program starts.

Flower kimono dance Asakusa Hanayashiki flower kimono

The closing event is
It started with the dance of the flower kimono by Asakusa Hanayashiki Kimono.
Nine dancers who play an active part in Asakusa Hana Theater dance supplely on the stage using handkerchiefs, umbrellas and fans.
The movement is like a petal swaying in the spring breeze.

Hana kimono dancing with a folding fan in time with Yamato music.
Colorful kimono｡The back is also gorgeous｡
At the end of the dance, a large flower blossomed.

Kodan Hakusan Kanda

This is the 6th generation of Kanda Hakusan, who has been promoted to earnest hit on February 11 this year.
It has been featured in various media and is now the hottest lecturer who can’t get a ticket, Hakusan Kanda.
“I heard that it was overcrowded, but there are some places available.”
“It is said that you have to do” Genpei Morning and Oki Ogi no Target “for about 30 minutes. I don’t want to do that much.”
When saying that, the venue is in a whirlpool of laughter.
After grabbing the customer’s heart with a slightly longer macula,
“The reason why she talked so much is that the main story is so short!”
With the momentum and power of the talks of Hakusan who folds steadily, the audience at the venue will be more and more drawn in without having time to breathe.
The talk goes on in a fast-paced narrative. At that time,
“What a time! Time has come!”
I thought, without putting a break,
“But I’m not going tomorrow! May I tell you more about this?”
The talk resumes with great applause.
And fold it to the end,
“To commemorate your well-being and good luck, your target (Mato) may be a big hit!”
Finally, the venue was wrapped in great applause.

6th generation Hakusan Kanda
We play Genpei prosperity “Ogi no target” with good tempo.
The story celebrates with great enthusiasm and ends.

Tezuma (wazuma) Daiki Fujiyama

Next is Daiki Fujiyama, one of the few Tezuma teachers who instructs Shintaro Fujiyama as a teacher and inherits the country’s intangible cultural property, Tezuma (wazuma).
He shows his Tezuma overseas and spreads Japanese traditional culture around the world.
“Tezuma” is said to be a twiz because it moves his hands as fast as lightning.

This is a Tezumae that cuts the thumbs of both hands tightly bound with a sword.
No matter how many times you pass through the sword, it won’t cut off mysteriously.
Seven changes. Show the performance of the dance through vivid changes in the face that occur in an instant.
Such an expression｡
Finally, Kime pose!

Japanese musical instrument performance AUN J Classic Orchestra

This is a Japanese musical performance by AUN J Classic Orchestra, a unit of Japanese musicians active in the front line of each instrument.
He has performed well at world heritage sites such as Angkor Wat and Mont Saint Michel, and has earned a high reputation overseas.


An ensemble of six Japanese musical instruments that fit perfectly will shake the venue.
The sound of the shakuhachi supports the melody line of the AUN J Classic Orchestra.
It’s like a shamisen like a guitar
A Japanese drum solo part. The rhythm rises from the bottom of the belly, and the feeling is enhanced.

Manzai Lol problem

It is two people with a Lol problem that decorate the big bird at the closing event and the “2nd Edo Town Taito Festival”.
With a poisonous tongue, I slashed the current topical story that can not be broadcast by terrestrial broadcasting and invited the laughter of the venue.

Two people with Lol problem
I will make the topic of the seasonal entertainment world a story with a poisonous tongue｡
Social situation is also bad

Finale

The last was a towel by the performers.

State of hand-to-pew maki｡

With great applause, the closing event of the “2nd Edo Town Taito Geisha Festival” has ended.

Conclusion

We reported on the experience report of the “2nd Edo Town Taito Festival” closing event.
Isn’t the stage where dancers, talk arts, and Japanese musical instrument performances were gathered together, and the contents of the talks were just right to add flowers to the closing event?
「The 2nd Edo Machitoto Geiku Festival」, which has enlivened Taito Ward with various performing arts and arts culture for about half a year, has now closed its doors.
