I’m currently reading “Geisha, A Life” and I wanted to be able to picture it properly in my head when they talk about their dance performances. I am not disappointed.
I was wondering about her. I got the same vibe from her as The Queen of the Night from Mozart's "The Magic Flute". I wonder what sort of role she was playing.
Wow! So incredibly beautiful! To be able to move with such grace and as if they are floating is incredible! I'd love to watch this live one day, I'm sure it's something to remember for sure!
2:04 - 2:32 i have literally never seen such a gorgeous geisha or maiko in my life, oh... dont even get me started... such grace, such expression, such emotion
I think this might be a Geiko rather than a Maiko. You can generally regonize it by the hair. Geiko's wear wigs and Maikos use their real hair. In the end for example the ones with accessories in their hair are Maikos. And their Kimonos are also more patterns and colourful than a Geiko's.
@@foureyedsnake244 There's no way to tell from this particular piece. She is in costume there, performing as a fictional character. She is wearing neither maiko nor geiko hair or dress. In some of the skits, some of the geiko are even dressed as stylized men.
It's hard to get into the tea houses where a geisha performs, but you can go to some restaurants where you can watch Maiko (basically juniors in training) for much cheaper. When I get my poop in a group and finally get to Japan for a trip, that's my plan.
I am going to see it live this November, i can't wait! Edit : It was wonderful! They also sell Confections and snacks too which i bought for my friends and family at home. Too bad you're not allowed to record the performance, but overall is great, loving it!
I have been to one of these shows in this theater, truly Beautiful & those amazing Kimonos, these ladys know there craft. I was very moved at the show I saw sadly photos where band,I think they change the show every year. So highly recommended if your every in Kyoto. Thank you so much for this brings back very happy memories of my stay in kyoto🎎⛩💐👍🙂
Wow! I didn't know the Kitano Odori had so many skits! I'm so used to seeing maiko and geiko dance, but to see them act is a completely different treat ^^ It was also fun to see Umechie again, I miss her~ and seeing Maiko Umehina-san when she was just starting brought back a lot of memories! I would love to know who the older geiko is, she's so fiery!!
Nice to see young ladies here, upholding the tradition. Geisha is a declining profession (or at least it was ten years ago when I heard), but it would be a good opportunity for an artsy woman who's steadfast on not marrying. I hope the gentlemen always treat them right.
Thank you for the video. Very beautiful. Movements are so graceful. I do not understand Japanese but that did not interfere with my enjoyment. Regards from Bob in Ontario, Canada

This will always be my favorite thing about the internet. When it introduces you to something you didn't know you enjoy.
RUclips occasionally reminds me of old RUclips, when RUclips was great. I love seeing things like this.
😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
The Japanese culture is just so beautiful
and elegant
same
@이고양 okay...
Yes it is !😍
Every culture is beautiful ☺️
Imagine being one of the first foreigners back in the 19th century to see geiko/maiko performances. They must've absolutely been enchanted
Japan has such an amazing culture
Katsuna's dance is so angelic, I take a lot of inspiration from her for dancing ballet.
I’m currently reading “Geisha, A Life” and I wanted to be able to picture it properly in my head when they talk about their dance performances. I am not disappointed.
I know I’m 3+ years behind you but I’m doing the exact same thing right now haha
The beauty of the performance left me breathless, true acts of art , a standing ovation for all those who danced . 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
勝奈さんのしなやかな動き、綺麗ですね。思わず 「美しい」 と一言・・・・
Very beautiful.. and artistic... lovely and elegant dancing... I truly enjoyed watching
1:19 is my favourite, such grace, power, and articulation all in one very expressive character.
Good eye! That's Fukuzuru-san, one of Kamishichiken's veteran geiko. She's very talented!
I was wondering about her. I got the same vibe from her as The Queen of the Night from Mozart's "The Magic Flute". I wonder what sort of role she was playing.
It is a male's dance that's why
I too was impressed by the old geiko.
Wow! So incredibly beautiful! To be able to move with such grace and as if they are floating is incredible! I'd love to watch this live one day, I'm sure it's something to remember for sure!
Hope you can do it one day!
@@discoverkyoto I've always wanted to be a geisha
@@relaxingexscapes i think it is possible to be a geisha as a foreigner, i don’t know the process but i have seen geishas that are not japanese
What beautiful performance and culture of Japanese
The geiko At 1:27 is really espressive, You Can Read The emotions of The character She plays
That is veteran geiko Fukuzuru-san dancing the "Flowers of Tabaruzaka", depicting the battlefield of the Satsuma Rebellion/Seinan War.
Geiko is the Kansai dialect for geisha. ^^
舞妓さんの華やかさと芸妓さんのシックさに思わず見とれてしまいました。このところ体調が悪く落ち込んでいましたが、所作の一つ一つが息をのむような美しさで、とても元気づけられました。ありがとうございます🌸
😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
勝奈さん素敵すぎる
1:31 - 1:54 I like that part very much, I don't know why.
Me tooo, am trynna see where the video of the full dance is if there is one just for that scene
Beautiful to watch old traditions.
The musicians are so serious, and the dancers perform so nicely.
🇨🇴🇯🇵私は日本をとても尊敬しています、コロンビアからこんにちは!!!
This is the most graceful stage in life

А как найти эту пьесу пожалуйста скажите
@@foureyedsnake244как найти и посмотреть эту пьесу ?

@@goombapizza6335judging from her age and that the Kimono she’s wearing is typical of a Geiko, I’m sure it’s safe to assume she’s a Geiko.
1:27 a explosion of colour and music which made me feel overwhelmed and delighted!
Same, it somehow (To me) gave off a feeling of youthful innocence, but slowly aging.
Elegance, beauty, expressiveness, tradition, I love these events, where you can enjoy the art of Maikos and Geikos, thank you very much.
It truly is a privilege to watch this live. I’m glad to have experienced this graceful art form last week. Definitely one of Japan’s best.
omg it's like watching a painting in motion.
So elegant and mysterious 💖
there so pretty, and dance so gracefully too💝🌺
I always wanted to see such dance/culture of Japan👏👏amazing すごい
Japan is beautiful country
It’s my dream to party with Geisha one day.
They are so beautiful, and this performance is very beautiful too.
It's hard to get into the tea houses where a geisha performs, but you can go to some restaurants where you can watch Maiko (basically juniors in training) for much cheaper. When I get my poop in a group and finally get to Japan for a trip, that's my plan.
The colors from their kimonos are so rich and a treat for the eyes.
Geishas are not artists
They're a work of art.
They live and breathe the art
There are many beautiful cultures around the world but the Japanese one stands out as particularly refined and elegant
The unmatched elegance of everything Japanese.
So much skill and talent in dance. And bless the dressers and musicians that help bring this alive
I adore japanese culture and art!!!
❤️ Japan from México!
I am going to see it live this November, i can't wait!
Edit : It was wonderful! They also sell Confections and snacks too which i bought for my friends and family at home. Too bad you're not allowed to record the performance, but overall is great, loving it!
I love Japan 🇯🇵❤️🇮🇳
Thanks a lot! Watching the video makes you want to go visit Japan even more!

That was really cool! All the different dances and plays were amazing to see.
WHAT IS THIS STORY?! I'm catching so little of it and it's so beautiful ❤️❤️❤️
I have been to one of these shows in this theater, truly Beautiful & those amazing Kimonos, these ladys know there craft. I was very moved at the show I saw sadly photos where band,I think they change the show every year. So highly recommended if your every in Kyoto. Thank you so much for this brings back very happy memories of my stay in kyoto🎎⛩💐👍🙂
I really wish I knew more of the story so I could understand this beautiful thing
They are so beautiful...
Wow! I didn't know the Kitano Odori had so many skits! I'm so used to seeing maiko and geiko dance, but to see them act is a completely different treat ^^ It was also fun to see Umechie again, I miss her~ and seeing Maiko Umehina-san when she was just starting brought back a lot of memories! I would love to know who the older geiko is, she's so fiery!!
me: *Saw Discover Kyoto upload*
*click the youtube then watch silently while shrieking about how beautiful they are*
so beautiful, love it 😍😍😊
Nur Hidayah
舞妓さん､芸妓さん､皆綺麗でしょう
Brings warm memories back to see Umechie again. Hope she's doing well.
They are...so beautiful 💜
Very awesome
Yessss they’re so pretty and talented!!!!
Nice to see young ladies here, upholding the tradition. Geisha is a declining profession (or at least it was ten years ago when I heard), but it would be a good opportunity for an artsy woman who's steadfast on not marrying. I hope the gentlemen always treat them right.
Es triste que algo tan iconico a nivel cultural como lo son las geishas estén desapareciendo y siendo arrasadas por la cultura moderna..
this gave me chills, i literally teared up
I wanna go to Japan just to see this
So many blossoms 🌸
this is hypnotizing
oh beautiful city of Kyoto...I go back to you!!
This here is why Kamishichiken is one of my favorite Kagai.
Kagai is East Japanese thing.
It's hanamachi in Kyoto.
勝奈さん、うわー勝奈さん、え～と勝奈さん、勝奈さ～ん、何度でも呼びたい勝奈さん💖
可愛いかったですよね。
未だに帰って来て欲しいと
思っています。
Beautiful!
would be nice to know the story narrated by the dance. Very nice
I didn't know geiko acted! Beautiful performance
1:51 their facial expression i cant 🤣
와 썸네일언니 3분16초에 나오는데 진짜 너무 우아하고 예쁘시다...... 생각날때마다 보는 영상 ,,♡
Spectacles uniques au monde que ceux donnés par les geïkos et maïkos de Kyoto. J'ai assisté au Miyako Odori de Gion en 2014, une merveille ...
この舞台に立つ日を想っています
どうせ入っても辞めるんだろ
勝奈さんが一番好き！引退されて寂しいけど…本当に綺麗！
Beautiful art I love art
Amazing, such amazing skill!
OMG!! They are truly beautiful. I'd love to spend the day with these women. Watching from London.
曾经应为 艺伎回忆录 这部电影对艺伎有很深印象 但从未看过艺伎舞蹈 感觉很美！

얼굴표정과 춤동작이 이야기한다
게이샤
너무 멋있다.
게이샤 마주보며 따뜻하게 달여진 정종 한잔.
술은 목을 타고 넘고,
술잔 안으로 벗꽃이 휘날리면서 떨어진다.
심장이 멎는다.
화장,향기,미소.
beautiful kimono and dance :D
Beautiful video! I wish you could see more of Umeha and Naosome, and Ichimari is so charming. Loved it.
Love it! Thank you for uploading this 💖
Japan is the most attractive and development country in the entire world
Geishas are so beautiful and mysterious
Beautiful and nice
Magnifique!
