SUMMARY:Nihon Buyo? Traditional Japanese Dance\, Lecture and Demonstration by Minosuke Nishikawa
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row css=".vc_custom_1655831849569{padding-bottom: 20px !important;}"][vc_column width="1/6"][/vc_column][vc_column width="2/3"][vc_column_text]\nThe Japan Foundation\, Kuala Lumpur (JFKL) will present ?NIHON BUYO?Traditional Japanese Dance\, Lecture and Demonstration by Minosuke Nishikawa? in Kuala Lumpur.\nNihon Buyo has developed from a long tradition of dance. Tracing back to the origins of Japan\, the oldest surviving text chronicling Japan?s history describes a goddess dancing\, with basic elements of today?s Nihon Buyo. Dance\, which was closely tied to daily life\, often in religious contexts\, began to be performed on a larger scale and on stage in the 17th century\, especially with the development of the kabuki theatre. As more dance pieces were created and performed as part of the kabuki theatre\, dance began to develop into an independent art form. Schools of dance were created\, each developing their own style.\nWith the aim of establishing one distinct form of traditional Japanese dance expression\, the term Nihon Buyo (literally ?Japanese dance?) was created in the early 20th century. Today\, Nihon Buyo has five large schools\, one of which is the Nishikawa\, with its history of three centuries\, as well as many new schools.\nIn this performance\, Minosuke Nishikawa will introduce the essence of Nihon Buyo through his own lecture and demonstration\, while Minosuke Nishikawa and Seira Hanayagi will show the authentic performances.\nDate & Time: 2 (Tue) November 2010\, 20:30~22:15\nVenue: Dewan Auditorium Tuanku Abdul Rahman\, Malaysia Tourism Centre (MaTic)\, 109\, Jalan Ampang\, 50450\, Kuala Lumpur\nLocation Map: http://www.matic.gov.my/sites/default/files/matic_map.jpg\nAdmission: Free (Entrance Pass is required)\nSeats are limited.

A woman imitates\, with style\, dandy young men of the late 17th~ early 18th century period\, whose fashion has been adopted into several classic dance pieces. The dance also includes movements using a decorative spear\, showing ways in which props are used in Nihon Buyo to enhance the beauty of the movements.\n\nTomo-yakko (The Servant)\nChoreographed 180 years ago\, the dance depicts a servant who has lost his master while accompanying him to the pleasure quarters\, lighting the way with a lantern. The dance interweaves the servant’s comical imitation of his master and the colorful atmosphere of the pleasure quarters\, highlighted by an energetic sequence of footsteps to display the dancer’s skill.[/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text]Profile[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width="1/2"][vc_column_text]MINOSUKE NISHIKAWA\n\n \t\n\n \t1960 born as eldest son of Senzo Nishikawa X (10th) of the Nishikawa School in Roppongi\n \t1976 entered Waseda University Senior High School\n \t1979 entered School of Letters\, Arts and Sciences I\, Waseda University (Theater Dept.)\n \t1984 graduated Waseda University and begins full time career in dance as future head of the Nishikawa School\n \t1987 enrolled at University of London\, majoring in Western history and literature; as well as at Raban Center\, majoring in modern dance\, ballet\, dance theory\n \t1989 returned to Japan\n \t1990 director of Nihon Buyo Foundation\n \t1993 lecturer at Nihon University College of Art\, bestowed the name of Minosuke Nishikawa V (Kabukiza)\n \t1999 chairman of Josai Charter\, Shinjuku Committee\, Tokyo branch\, Japanese Dance Association Inc.\n \t2004 awarded Matsuo Performing Arts New Artist of the Year\n \t2006 awarded the 20th Juou Hanayagi New Artist Award (2005) (awarded by the Japanese Dance Association Inc.\n\n\n\n[/vc_column_text][vc_separator color="custom" accent_color="#cccccc" css=".vc_custom_1655831683810{padding-top: 20px !important;padding-bottom: 20px !important;}"][vc_column_text]SEIRA HANAYAGI\n\n \t\n\n \t\n\n \tBegan studying traditional Japanese dance under Masao Hanayagi (current Shotaro II) and Shoyo Hanayagi since 3 years old.\n \tHas been continually creating and presenting original works since she started to gain experience in the creative process at the dance laboratory\, “Rappuza”.\n \tIn 1993\, performed at the “New Spring Dance Festival” organized by the Japanese Dance Association Inc. and received the Grand Prize-Minister of Culture Award.
