This is beautiful beyond words, thank you for the detailed inscriptions they really helped alot to understand the procession. Now I can truly say I learned something new and interesting about 17-18th century Japanese traditions.😊
Good work. Your additional information in romanji is very appreciated and helps a lot to learn more about Awa Odori. Question: Is there more than one 'Tensui-Ren'? I saw the Tokio TR (black clothes and superb drumming) and a Tensui-Ren in white clothes. Greetings from Hamburg 🇩🇪
There are actually four Tensui-ren in Japan. So whenever you mention "Tensui-ren," you need to specify which one. 1. The original and oldest Tensui-ren (天水連) in Tokushima originally founded in 1897 as Nankaku-ren (南廓連) and renamed "Tensui-ren" in 1946. www.tensuiren.jp/top.html 2. Tokyo Tensui-ren (東京天水連) based in Koenji founded in 1985. They are not affiliated with Tensui-ren in Tokushima. Their dance music is distinctive and very different. Wildly popular in Tokyo. They also have a friendship connection with Saipan where they perform at the island's Japanese autumn festival every year. So at Koenji, the troupe has a few musicians/dancers from Saipan. facebook.com/profile.php?id=100071863455828 3. Osaka Tensui-ren (大阪天水連) in Mino, Osaka founded in 1995. It's affiliated with Tensui-ren in Tokushima. Their music is similar to Tensui-ren in Tokushima. instagram.com/osakatensui/ 4. Tensui-ren Minami-Koshigaya (天水連南越谷関東支部) founded in 2008 as another affiliate of Tensui-ren in Tokushima. Their music is similar to Tensui-ren in Tokushima. They appear in the Minami-Koshigaya Awa Odori held almost the same time as Koenji. 天水連南越谷関東支部.jp/ "Tensui" means heavenly water. Mentioned in a proverb in Awa Province (Tokushima) dialect.
Thank you very, very much. I didn't anticipate such an elaborated answer. It is frustrating how the language barrier prevents me, as a fan of Awa Odori, achieve Information. Maybe I have to learn Japanese (would be the 3. attempt😅). Thanks again. Have a nice day. 🇯🇵✊🇩🇪
Hi photojpn, may i have permission to use this clip for a live performance as the background visual? It's part of my artist project - would be happy to credit you & would love to discuss further. please let me know!
Beautiful! I wish Americans would cherish there women like her. But the women here don’t won’t to be cherished. They want to be equal and cheat and become men. The Chinese and Japanese don’t act like that. If I married her I would put her on the pedal-still she deserves.
i'm a little skeptic about the hidden post to watch enemies. it's smart, but having to pull the ladder down then put it back up so the enemy doesn't notice is really sketchy, even if you were to do it completely quietly, would the enemy already be at the point where he saw the ladder retract?
The Mystique of Oiran is still remembered to this day. The Geisha are not Prostitutes and they Continue their Tradition of Being Artists, Entertainers, and Perfect Hostesses. Yet Oiran Fascinates, and brings people to enjoy the History of what Oiran used to be like in the Edo Period. These are Actresses demonstrating the Dochu and what it must have been like for the Clients to meet an Oiran. Before Geisha became popular, the Oiran Danced and Sang and were seen as above their clients.
You are so beautiful, wonderful and excellent! I believe that you can show the world the Japanese heart with your songs. I would like to Jamie and Megan to sing beautiful Japanese songs translated into English. Thank you so much.
Good question. They are not priestesses. They would be members of a dance troupe that performs this dance. Couldn't find any info about how they are recruited or selected, but it likely depends on how much they are committed to practice and master the dance.
