Artists
-
Hiranai Enburi Gumi Group
The Hiranai Enburi inherits an older form called naga enburi (slow enburi) which is played in septuple meter with slow and soft movement of body. It is performed by three dancers; the front called Tokuro wearing eboshi with red peony flower, the middle, and the rear called kurodome. The uniqueness of the Hiranai Enburi is found in its fidelity to traditional form of song, dance and tone of the flute.
-
Tashiro Enburi Gumi Group
The Tashiro Enburi is said to be converted from a traditional rice-transplanting ritual with acceptance of another enburi in quintuple meter practiced in Sugisawa community, former Tabe village (currently Fukuchi, Nanbu town). It has a local characteristic in the tone of singing and the ending section of the dance, and inherits many side-show items in their original form.
-
Hiranai Keibai Group
Keimai, a dance with headdress imitating chicken’s head, is considered as a form of nenbutsu odori in connection with the cult of chicken as exorcist, transmitted from Kesen region belonging to Sendai domain in Ansei era (1854-1859).
The items of the Hiranai Keimai are comprised of haka nenbutsu (prayer in front of tomb), butsudan nenbutsu (prayer in front of Buddhist altar) and niwaodori (garden dance). The latter keeps nine pieces as its repertory in their original form. -
Toyabe Enburi Gumi Group
The origin of the Toyabe Enburi is unknown, except for the oldest record telling it participated in an enburi event in Hachinohe region about 1883. Nowadays, it is defined as a kind of dousai enburi (fast enburi) and a descendant from Hosogoe Enburi in former Odate village. After a period of inactivity due to the shortage of successors since around 1954, it was resumed by the avid masters and youngsters in 1976.
-
Dobutsu Kagura Preservation Society
The Dobutsu Kagura belongs to the family of kagura called Hakuryu Daigongen which has been practiced by mountain hermits for 300 years. Its dance repertory consists of 12 items. Having faced extinction in more than 20 years of suspension, it was revived by the current community of practitioners in 1975. In the past, it was not only a performance to express the belief concerning people’s daily life, such as rain-making ritual for good luck and warding off evil spirits, but also a popular entertainment.

Takisawa keibai Preservation Society
Takisawa Keimai is a local performing art from the Takisawa district of Taneichi in Hirono Town, and is said to have been handed down during the Ansei era (1854-1860). While it is closely related to Kenbai, a type of elegant nenbutsu dance that can be observed throughout almost the entire Iwate Prefecture, it is also influenced by Yamabushi Kagura, as seen in the costumes such as the bird-shaped helmets and the verses of the grave nenbutsu.
The dancers form a circle around a willow (flower) and perform more than 20 different dances to the accompaniment of musical instruments.
