macbeth

-the attempt is to translate the indispensable musical elements found in Noh which is Japanese traditional theatre into western music. Adopting Shakespeare's drama, Japan's young traditional performers embark on a new interpretation of a Noh play as a theatrical art. Performers of Noh play and Japanese dancers demonstrate their art, opera singers sing, and percussionists and a pianist accompany the other performers. This project is an experimental contemporary Noh-performance set in the hybrid city of New York. It expresses the current moment of Japanese culture.
