上山田お神楽の皆様、今年も頑張りましょう!

At the Kamiyamada Kagura Preservation Group's New Year Party the other day, we finished off with a 'Hokushin-ryu' ceremony. I've seen and taken part in many of these proceedings, and they never fail to impress me with their formal pagentry and deep sense of history. It's said to have originated from here, northern Nagano.
