Sweet, poignant, and emotional, its elegant resonance endures to this day. Miyazono-bushi was praised by the writer Nagai Kafu as the most solemn style of joruri (Japanese narrative music), and it is a rare form of traditional music imbued with ancient elegance. It is also known as the ultimate form of art, mastered only after acquiring skills in a wide range of performing arts…. Come and enjoy the bittersweet resonations of emotions between a man and a woman, performed by Living National Treasures.
