A cultural interpretation of Bible story, "Gospel in BUNRAKU"
TOYOTAKE Rodayu the 6th, a japanese chrisitian "JORURI" master performer, made the story of Jesus Christ with BUNRAKU (traditional japanese puppet theater with balad).
This christmas story is also deeply emotiv.
クリスチャン浄瑠璃義太夫である六代目豊竹呂太夫師匠の作による、「ゴスペル in 文楽」。人形浄瑠璃によるイエスの生涯を描く。
こんなクリスマス物語も感慨深いです。
With japanese caption.
(Also for japanese speaker, JORURI is difficult to listen.)
上記の動画の日本語字幕版。
