Sakai Kagura Dance

Sakai Kagura Dance

Kagura literally means “god entertainment.” It refers to the sacred music and dances used in Shinto rituals to entertantain the gods. These arts have a long history in Japan, spanning over two centuries. During one of its 2021 tours, Kodo crossed paths with Sakai Kagura Dance Preservation Society in mainland Niigata, and introduced them to EC. Join us as we welcome the Society to Sado Island for its first-ever EC performance!
