Japanese Noh Music

Ghosts of warriors, noble ladies, demons, deities, passions and insanity these are the subjects of the famed Noh plays of Japan. With its spectacular costumes and expressive carved wooden masks, Noh Theater has no counterparts in the West. The music accompanying these plays contributes to the intense drama which has captivated audiences since the fifteenth century. Rarely performed in the West, this collection, recorded in Japan by Katsumasa Takasago, captures an intense music at its most compelling, moving, unsettling and unforgettable!
