Description:
From an album of Kyogen performances, "Kyogen-ga Taikan", "Fuku no Kami" (The God of Happiness). Kyogen is performed during the intermission of Noh plays. Unlike the solemn, formal and symbolic noh theater, kyogen makes the audience laugh with their comical dialog and lively movements.
