Description:

In the Taisho era (1912-1926), the Asakusa Opera suddenly arose in Asakusa, the entertainment district where democracy, moga mobo, Taisho Romanticism, and the best of popular entertainment gathered. The pioneering performance "Onna Gunsudai" and other precious sound recordings from that time have been brought back to life 100 years later with the latest digital technology! The recordings include the voices of young Rikizo Taya, Yoshie Fujiwara, Sadakazu Futamura, Ruby Takai, and others who influenced Asakusa's popular performing arts from the Taisho to Showa eras. This is the definitive CD of Asakusa Opera, selected by Yuki Kohari's supervision and his own collection!
