桑田貴志　能まつり「融」

The 14th Takashi Kuwata Noh Festival. This time, we will be performing ``Toru'', which is about Heian aristocrats.

Toru Minamoto (822-895) was a Heian aristocrat who was born as the son of Emperor Saga and rose to the rank of Minister of the Left.

He loved elegance and demonstrated his talent for Japanese poetry and music.

At his residence, which was called Kawara-no-in, a large garden modeled after Shiogama, a scenic spot in Mutsu, was built, where elegant parties with orchestral music and dancing were held every night. It seems that it was held. It is said in ``Ise Monogatari'' that Narihira Ariwara often participated in this night's banquets.

Minamoto no Toru, a handsome nobleman, is said to be one of the models for Hikaru Genji in "The Tale of Genji."

Rokujo-no-in, which was built by Hikaru Genji at the height of his power, is an elegant mansion that incorporates the atmosphere of the four seasons into the north, south, east, and west, and it is said that it was modeled after this riverside temple.

Minamoto no Toru, an elegant man who represented the Heian aristocracy, seems to have been a master of dance. There are many small books (special performances) about dance. This time, I will be performing a short story called ``Maikaeshi noden.'' The dance in the second half is slow and fast, and changes in an interesting way.

I would like to try this difficult dance while thinking about the entertainment that was enjoyed under the harvest moon during the Heian period.

The Kyogen play ``Fukitori'' is also related to the harvest moon and music. Please enjoy Mansai Nomura's stylish and brilliant performance.
