鶴田 錦史 – 壇の浦 (Kinshi Tsuruta – Dan no Ura)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4W9dhKgks0k
Ich habe dieses Lied durch den Film Kwaidan entdeckt, der auf einer von Lafcadio Hearn transkribierten Kurzgeschichte basiert. Ich kannte das epische Heikemonogatari. Wie sehr der Wert dieser Krieger, die dem flüchtigen Tod nahe waren, meine flüchtige Sicht auf die illusorische Welt prägte. Und manchmal betrachte ich den Regen auf der Wasseroberfläche, jede einzelne Welle, wie eine Vision der anderen, die wir einmal waren. Dann kehrt die Welle flach und gleichmäßig zurück und wartet darauf, eine weitere unmögliche Welle zu empfangen. – @manura02 – Instrument: Satsuma-Biwa.

What do you do when you find a black Wednesday wig in your child's room tidying? You do what any adult does. You get your wife to watch Kwaidan (1964) and then hide it in her pillows.
Obviously.

I often saw this book in stores and ignored it because I wrongly assumed that it was just another rehash of Kwaidan. It is actually a very good collection of Hearn's ghostly tales culled from his various books.

Having just finished Julian Sedgwick and Chie Kusuwada's rather wonderful 100 Tales From the Tokyo Ghost Cafe (just out from Guppy Books), I have selected some appropriate viewing for this evening: 1964 Japanese classic, Kwaidan, which shares a number of the same fokloric influences.
