I flew to Matsuyama yesterday for some meetings. After work, I checked into my hotel and found out that there was a small Noh Theatre inside. My colleague from Matsuyama suggested that we go by and see it.
We were just in time to catch a few minutes of a demonstration. I didn't understand any of the song - neither did my colleague. But, it was really interesting to see. Click on the video below to get an idea of what Noh is like.

In my limited Noh experience, I don't remember anyone moving that fast, but the songs I'll never forget EVER. Even tho it's been more than 45 years, somethings just donn't change. I was a Stanford student back then. I preferred Kabuki--Perhaps I just wasn't sophisticated enough!
