TACHIBANA
SCHOOL ... ACTIVITIES: The button gives a glimpse of bunraku
being performed by the ladies of the Edo Chiyoda castle; it is
from one of the triptychs of Toyohara Chikanobu (1838-1912). The
excerpt from the festive piece (shuugimono) Tsurukame
is from a 1964 Columbia recording oiwai to enkai no uta "Songs
for celebrations and parties." It is performed by Yoshimura
Ijuurou. ... SUMMER FESTIVAL: The button shows a
bit of merrymaking at an inn at Miya, stop #41 on the Toukaidou;
this drawing by Hiroshige appears on an Edo-period parcheesi board
titled Ukiyoe-hizakurige "Ukiyo-e journey on shank's
mare" (reprint Tokyo, Okuno Card Shop, no date). The board is
inspired by the comic novel "The Toukaidou on shank's mare."
I do not know the source of this recording of Tankou bushi.
