Yosakoi

From Wikipedia, the không tính tiền encyclopedia

Yosakoi (よさこい) is a unique style of dance that originated in nhật bản and that is performed at festivals and events all over the country.

The style of dance is highly energetic, combining traditional Japanese dance movements with modern music. The choreographed dances are often performed by large teams.

The costumes used by yosakoi teams vary widely. Happi coats and yukata are the most predominant costumes and can be seen in a wide variety of colors.

One of the defining aspects of yosakoi dance is the use of naruko: small wooden clappers that are held in the hands of each dancer. Naruko were originally used in Kōchi Prefecture đồ sộ scare birds away from rice fields. The traditional naruko has Đen and yellow beaters on a wooden toàn thân, but most modern yosakoi groups create their own naruko, choosing colors and materials that match their costumes. The use of naruko is required in yosakoi dance, but many groups also use other hand-held instruments or props, such as drums, other percussion instruments, flags, batons, and floats.

Yosakoi Naruko Dancing[edit]

The official yosakoi dance is based on a tuy vậy called "Yosakoi Naruko Dancing", written by Takemasa Eisaku. This tuy vậy was created by combining elements of three songs: "Yosakoi-bushi" ("yosakoi melody"), "Yocchore" (a children's song), and "Jinma-mo" (a folk tuy vậy of Kōchi Prefecture). The original competition in Kōchi requires that each team's music include some part of this original music. Competitions and festivals in other areas may not have this requirement (thus allowing teams đồ sộ compose their own music), or may require that elements of different local folk songs are worked into the dance routines. Takemasa has given the copyright on "Yosakoi Naruko Dancing" đồ sộ the public.
