Onikenbai

Many excellent folk performing arts have been handed down in this prefecture, but this demon sword dance is performed in hopes of exorcism of evil spirits, peace in the world, and a good harvest, and is performed by a group of people with brave movements. The anger of expelling evil spirits and the single-mindedness of praying for divine and Buddhist blessings are complemented by the unique costumes and light musical accompaniment that can be adjusted at any speed, making the dance even more appealing and captivating and captivating to the viewers. This demon sword dance can be seen at the Kitakami Michinoku Performing Arts Festival and the Bonfire Performance held at Natsuyu Onsen. It has been decided that ``Furyu-odori'', including ``Onikenbu'', will be registered as a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage. (2022.11.30) → [ Kitakami City Homepage ]
