NOH THEATRE with TEAM NOSARU (JP)

Noh theatre was originally called Sarugaku, and the name of the team NOSARU comes from the combination of “noh” and “sarugaku”. In addition, it means to know the origin and go new, rather than the history of classical performing arts that continue to evolve with the times.

Team Nosaru consists of performers of noh, traditional Japanese instruments (sho, biwa, koto, shakuhachi), and western organ and vocal music. Hōgakki is the term for instruments that were created during more than a thousand year of history in Japan. It is, however, interesting that players of these instruments have only few opportunities to play with each other. This opportunity is created in Team Nosaru.

Team Nosaru was formed with the aim of inspiring the next generation and promoting an international understanding of Japanese classical performing arts as an evolving artform – not something that has come to a standstill.

In 2023, Team Nosaru will give performances and workshops in three countries (France, Spain, and Denmark) to present original music and noh dances that fuse East and West in order to promote international cultural exchange.

TICKETS: 150 DKK / Stud. 100 DKK. Door opens 19.30.
