右近の櫓のお七、概してよかったんだけど、人形ぶりにブレイクダンスをいれたのは余計な動きがあってよくなかった。
MY GOD the actor playing the Mountain God is out of this world
🌻🌹🍁
Do they still use onnagata ? Or real women ? Haven't found anything about it.
Yes, male onnagata actors are still the norm, although on a few occasions the daughters of actors can play some roles.
@@KabukiInDepth Thank you for the answer, I learned a bit about Kabuki while reading a book about Ukiyo-e with many actors depicted in it.
Please put lots of full length Kabuki Plays with a briefing and subtitles in english.
Onoe UkonII is very talented and it was a joy to learn more about his work. Thanks again for the great video!
kunitsu gami gonna make me watch kabuki now
Excellent video as always, brother, but I'll tell you the truth: I felt really sorry for Onoe Maholo when he mentioned that he felt bitter because of Renjishi. Maholo shouldn't feel this way, because as Ukon II mentioned, a few Kabuki actors also have the same situation as him (that is, not being the son of a Kabuki actor). If we look at the history of Kabuki, some of the most famous actors were not born as children of Kabuki actors, such as Bandō Tamasaburō V (whose biological parents owned a Ryōtei restaurant in Tokyo) or Kataoka Ainosuke VI (whose biological parents owned a screw factory in Sakai, a city near Osaka). So I think what Maholo should show is that what he lacks in lineage, he can make up for in talent, just like Ukon II, Tamasaburō V and Ainosuke VI, do you agree? Speaking of Ukon II, I have a doubt here: if Ukon II reaches the same level as Danjuro XIII, Ainosuke VI or Kikunosuke V, do you think he will change his name or possibly keep his current name (like the case of Tamasaburō V )?
I wish I could remember names. Sounds so fun to see an actor and know who the hell he is.
You are definitely right, but it is hard to rationalize those things at such a young age. As one of the interviews mentioned, most actors of his age have been recently performing Renjishi with their fathers (Kantarō III, Chōzaburō II, Ushinosuke VII, Shinnosuke VIII this fall...), so it is understandable that he might feel a bit left out. There are not many obvious name options for him, although it would be cool if they revived some historical Otowaya name for him, such as Taganojō, Kikujirō, Eizaburō...
I'm sure you'll get the hang of it soon enough! At first it seems like an overwhelming amount of strange names, generation numbers and obscure guilds, but as you fall down the kabuki rabbit hole, before you realize it you can spot the top actors under any combination of costumes and makeup.
Hi there! I always wondered what the black, fishnet like long-sleeved garment is called (here worn under the yoten) and what material it is made of. At 7:46 min. Perhaps you know the answer. Thank you very much in advance and greetings to you!
what is the main musical accompaniment used for Omatsuri is there any chance of recording of the music itself ?
It uses Kiyomoto music, written by Kiyomoto Saibē for the premiere. I looked for it to use as background music for the video, but I couldn't find any recordings, I'm afraid. I ended up using the music for Kanda Matsuri instead.
Very authentic to say the least. Whoever conceptualize this, must have been very visionary.
Geisha dances are performed with more quality and delicacy by onnagata than by geishas, honestly.
I adore the idea that a bunch of actors goofing around backstage after a show turns into a treasured public dance.
My favorite part about the Omatsuri dance is when the kakegoe “Mattemashita!!” Is said And the actor responds
just saw this in Osaka
Brother, I have always loved this Kabuki tradition and my favorite dance from this tradition is Omatsuri, mainly because it combines dance and Tachimawari (fight choreography). I even remember watching one of these scenes starring Kataoka Nizaemon XV and seeing how magical and incredible it was to mix dance and fight in the same scene. By the way, I have a question here related to the Yorozuya house's Shūmei that is currently occurring: in Nakamura Hayato's future Shūmei, what is the possible name he should take in his prolific career as a Kabuki actor? Nakamura Kinnosuke III or Yorozuya Kinnosuke II?
My guess would be Nakamura Kinnosuke III, as there are no other obvious names available. Yorozuya Kinnosuke would be unnecessarily confusing, although the Kikugorō family has already set precedent.
:o i thought it was a mask at first..
Kabuki is at least 1000x times better than western operas
"Is Kabuki worth it?" ..what an idiotic question.
This is a channel solely dedicated to kabuki theatre. I suspect you might have misunderstood the question in the title.
Koi yasuna koi. The beautiful movie made by Tomu Uchida!! I love it!!
大晦日からお正月にかけて魔法のような夢のお話。ストーリーを追うというより雰囲気に酔う、という感じですね。そして玉三郎・仁左衛門はもちろんベストカップルです
Wearing his lover's sleeve
It is my dream to play Umeō-maru in Sugawara Denju Tenarai Kagami ... wish me luck!!!
КАБУКИ больше всего люблю. Неиссякаемый источник вдохновения.
И музыка, и пластика, и изобразительное искусство.
Несравненная красота!
Фантастическая красота!
Amazing
Kabuki is relevant in our current time.
Kathakali from India shares similarity with Kabuki. Kathakali is the performance of Hindu legends and mythics. And I love both!
One of my favourite stage designs. I love how it contributes to immersion, but also allows the gorgeous costumes to be appreciated even better!
This was a very informative video: many thanks! Are/were there hakama that were more skirt-like instead of being giant trousers? I may have seen them in martial arts or Buddhist temples. I know sumo wrestlers and others wear kamishimo while participating in the bean-throwing festival at the new year; sometimes bright pink ones!
Thank you for watching! It is a bit confusing, because some hakama are designed to look like a skirt, such as the hibakama worn by miko at Shinto shrines, but they are actually trousers. The same happens with the hakama used in some martial arts, such as kyūdō. That said, there might be examples in the past, the history of clothing in Japan is extremely complex and varied!
Let the women ACT!! For crying out loud, don't you think they know?
Thank you! I love learning about the costumes. They are such an important part of the whole art of Kabuki.
I want that dude as a FromSoftware boss
I could have watched this for an hour, how wonderful! And I applaud the use of the arrows, there is no confusion and learning is much easier..please continue with these terrific videos! Thank you…from Martha’s Vineyard, Massachusetts, USA…
Fabulous!
Very interesting. I figured they were exaggerated at least a little, but learning that some of the pieces worn are _purely_ fantasy was surprising.
Japan is rich in heritage!
Such amazing information about these amazing costumes.
They are really amazing❤
Merci de toutes ces informations si intéressantes. Les costumes sont merveilleux.
Good!
Thank you so much for always providing so much information, context, and even the actors names/mie forms. Truly thankful!!
笑三郎さんの次元大介は嬉しいな❤ 普段は女方さんだけどかっこいい😎 それにしてもめちゃくちゃ盛りだくさんですね❗️盆と正月と給料日がいっぺんに来たようです
I wanted to comment on a more relevant video, but kabuki on demand will have this available with English subtitles in August thanks to Shochiku! It's a great opportunity for people who haven't watched a full new production before.
❤
Yes, please, if you can, keep on going with these…it’s so wonderful…
As a classical musician, the kokyū section reminds me of some works written for violin in the 20th century! So beautiful to see how such different traditions can use similar techniques ❤️❤️❤️
Now thats 💯
What a great video! :)
