There are a lot of people saying that the dance was bad, but they really need to educate themselves on what the dances mean and about the Geisha culture...
+Bink Bink Well, people with small minds can't be helped. You have intelligent people and dim witted ones.

That compassion will be passed down through our bloodlines. Unfortunately for dumb people, they'll be weeded out by natural selection:); just as it has always been done.
Bad??? Would they be able to do the same only? Certainly not! Thus, what they may say isn't worth anything: this is just gossip and a sign of obvious stupidity.
This was a beautiful dance, and the music was perfect to accompany it. The elegance and grace of the Geisha is something than many can strive for, but only a few will ever attain.
@@mattmadill8668 Sorry, my English isn't perfect. I meant for western tastes, the musician may look better than the geisha. I still feel the "human doll" style of a geisha a little disturbing.

If you still want to try a kimono and still have not, I recommend to seek for auctions on eBay. You can buy a quality kimono for just a couple of dollars because Japanese people tend to buy new things and that's why used kimonos are very cheap. A kimono for a geisha is rare and it can still cost over 100-300$, but a beautiful semi-formal made of silk kimono can be bought for 15-20$. I have once bought a stunning kurotomesode for 15$.
the kimono that this Geiko is wearing is called a hikizuri Kimono this type is only worn by geisha you can buy furisode hikizuri kimono or the normal hikizuri and their quite expensive the prices go up to $ 5 000
In fact the dance was excellently executed with meaning, emotion and precision. The musician played without flaw and provided the accompaniment to allow the dancer to convey the meaning of the dance.
I really hope that i get the chance to see a performance of something like this wow this is the real roots and also history beautiful history see this live it will be a unique experience
I just finished amazing autobiography by Mineko Iwasaki. Japanese dance requires years of practice since they are toddlers the same as any western dance.
i got this school project to do, we get to chose a country and do the culture of it. i chose dance, food and textile. the country i chose is Japan. and for food, i chose sushi. for textile, im gonna make a kimono, and for dance, im gonna do this dance. we have only one week to woke on the project, hopefully i can learn the dance and finish making the kimono on time.
you made a kimono by yourself without learning how it is done ?? i am curious to see it. do you have a picture? i have studied wasai, or traditional jaanese sewing technique for 15 years and i am not yet at the level of being able to make a geiko's kimono. my teacher started making geisha's kimono after learning wasai for 35 years
I think he said that cause her white face in the dark room and her misunderstood movements/dance can be quite scaring for those who don t know geiko... i guess ^^'
The song title means "four seasons of Kyoto". of course Kyoto was the old capitol of Japan. The lyrics depict different sights of the city and the dance moves flow with lyrics. Example in the beginning the lyrics sings about "higashi yama" which is a mountain, you can see she puts her hand up to shield her eyes as she looks up at to the mountain. there's alot of intricacies like this.
I have this one dream of visiting Japan only to see geisha. For me, Japanese girls are the most beautiful in the world. I whish i could marry one of them. From Brazil.
wait minute or so, do not by shamed o mighty , picose i,m creting the spirit of kimono, in european style, i,m mean new! look they fight they killthemself ,for this, this it,s not a joke to cost soo much.
At 1:36 the chick playing the shamisen glances up at the dancing geisha with this look on her face that positively screams "MISTAKE! YOU SCREWED UP! I SAW WHAT YOU DID THAR!" Lol.
Saku-chan You're right, still perfect - though the shamisen chick seemed to detect some flaw I didn't see a single misstep myself. I like the slow and deliberate movements of traditional Japanese dance, combined with the music it's quite elegant and very soothing :)
The dancer is a natori, which means a master of dance. This is also one of the first dances a maiko learns, so she would have danced it many many times. It is very unlikely that the dancer would have made a mistake on such a simple dance. The jikata (shamisen player) probably was looking up without too much notice to make sure both are in sync. But I do not believe that it is possible that the dancer made a mistake.
I know this too is an old comment, but I would have to humbly disagree her movements are slow methodical and laced with grace, she moves as if she is a ghost gracing us with one final dance, of her precious Kyoto.

Even though the dance is slow it still looks complicated
I am fascinated by the Japanese culture. I am a full Alaskan native, but I was raised by a full Japanese mother. (adopted) Thank you for sharing.

Its not bad with me, but very simple but good
Bad??? Would they be able to do the same only? Certainly not! Thus, what they may say isn't worth anything: this is just gossip and a sign of obvious stupidity.
I feel like the dance of geisha is supposed to be simple.
Focusing more on grace than anything.
This was a beautiful dance, and the music was perfect to accompany it. The elegance and grace of the Geisha is something than many can strive for, but only a few will ever attain.
F Jolliff well said!!
I think the dances are supposed to tell a story, but I could be wrong. My knowledge of the geishas is very limited.
No, you're right. The dances will show the lyrics meaning.
The girl playing the shimasen is veery pretty >_<
She is definitely a looker as well the geisha.

I love their traditional dress (kimono) i wish i could try it someday.
If you want to buy a high quality Kimono you have to have quite a lot of money because they're not cheap at all xD

I'm amazed she could move around in that kimono without tripping...

Memoirs of Geisha brought me here.
Las amo
this dance is so hard to learn!
imagine we teleported to this time era.
i'll put it as my profile picture on youtube
Me and my groups danced that at our presentation we got 49/50 (sorry for my bad english its not my first language)
¡¡¡¡Colombia, road to Tokio 2020!!!!
Why? Because of her unnatural grace and dignity?
So this is what Robin is doing.
And, did you managed it? :)
Kisaeng desu!!!!!

It has different layers,It's not one piece.

it's perfect! what are you ppl whining about down there >(

what the song and dance is all about? is she looking or waiting for something?

Similar to the dance of in Southeast Asia.

I know this is old as heaven but I feel that.
In league with going to Japan and the woman as you said.

Is this woman is using some type of slumber spell on me or something cause this is making want to sleep 😪

Eu achei os gestos um tanto bruscos.
Parece una narración como un danza una mimica
Sumimasen, to all people of shinto. can you pray for my soul in my body to get new destiny, new life and new spirit of shinto? Please
幕末の志士も贔屓にしていたんだ~

i would be scared shitless if that girl came into my house:|
芸子さん？
お引きずりの着物は足が右か左かわかりづらいですね。
I think the instrument is off tune or I could be wrong
No its supposed to sound like that
It’s called a shamisen, a Japanese banjo guitar.
sugoi...

If you think this is good, look at the Gion Kyota dance, or the Butterfly dance.
what is a forehead

뒤병풍이 한국풍인데??? 저게 어떻게 일본풍 병풍이야... 산수화 사군자등..
It's interresting but it's not beethoven ...
I think the singing girl, her voice Is out of tune.
I think she sounds beautiful and I'm a 60's 70's 80's and 90's rock guy so this is not my traditional listening.
No, I think not..
her voice was lovely
It’s not. They use completely different tones, pitches, and scales in their music that aren’t common in western culture.
I THINK NOT SO GOOD.
Her dance was not very good.
no there taste.
WHY??
I know this too is an old comment, but I would have to humbly disagree her movements are slow methodical and laced with grace, she moves as if she is a ghost gracing us with one final dance, of her precious Kyoto.
@@li2906 well I like it, as the one who watched it it fits my taste thats the end of it i like what I like..
