Reading Course “Kisosaigo (Part 2)”
October 25, 2024
Reading Course: Kisosaigo (Part 2) @ KamakuraKomachian
About this course
This is a reading course held at the Kamakura study hall “KamakuraKomachian”. The course is structured so that you can listen to The Tale of the Heike Listened to by Heike Biwa accompaniment while reading the story (please note that this is not a course that teaches how to sing or play the instrument). Even if you don’t understand the story or the words are difficult, that’s okay. We will proceed slowly using a hiragana text.
In June and July, I gave a small concert in Kamakura called “Kiso Yoshinaka looks back”, in which I recited the Heikyoku “Kiso Saigo”, but there wasn’t enough time. I’ve had to shorten it, so I’d like to divide it into two parts for the reading course. The September course will cover the first part, up to the point where Tomoe shows us the last battle. The October course will cover the second part, from the point where Tomoe and Imaishirokanehira are alone together, but there may be some slight changes. Please forgive me.
Synopsis
Tale of the Heike, Volume 9 “Kisosaigo
Kiso Yoshinaka is cornered. He urges Tomoe, a female warrior who has remained loyal to him until the end, to leave the battlefield with him. After much conflict, Tomoe decides to part with Yoshinaka and takes on one last battle. After that, the only one left by Yoshinaka’s side is Imai Shiro Kanehira. The deep bond and promise they had made. Kanehira sent Yoshinaka to Awazu no Matsubara, and in order to buy Yoshinaka some time to kill himself, he stood alone against his enemy.

About this concert
