(Written on October 4th) Thanks to everyone’s support, we have finished accepting applications for this course. This is a reading course where all participants read aloud and listen to performances (please note that this is not a course that teaches how to sing or play the Heike biwa). You may be worried that you don’t understand the Tale of the Heike or that the language is difficult, but don’t worry. The course will progress slowly using a hiragana text. This is a relaxed course where you can read the story out loud and don’t worry about making mistakes, but instead focus on how you feel. [Synopsis] Tale of the Heike, Volume 11, “Senteigojyusui” The Genji clan are taking control of the Heike clan’s ships one after another. Tairano Tomomori felt his end was near and began to clean the imperial boat. Niinoama said, “Even though I am a woman, I will not fall into the hands of the enemy. I will go with the emperor,” and she proceeded to the sea with the Emperor Antoku in her arms.
