| The ceremonies, events, and traditional arts of
Inagawa Town, as transmitted to various regions, as well as the underlying
spirit of these cultural legacies have to date been passed on from
person to person across generations. On January 6, the Sanya Ceremony
is held to celebrate the attainment of adulthood by the first-born
sons in each household in Tamida. At the Autumn Festival held in Sugio
and Nishihata every October, onlookers can delight in the sight of
a parade of participants decked out in kabuki costumes. In addition,
the chanting of a joruri narrative, a spiritual chant accompanied
by the playing of shamisen, reflects the life force at the core of
the Japanese soul. |
