ワヤン・クリ Wayang Kulit

　今回はバリ島を代表する伝統芸能「ワヤン・クリ」とよばれる影絵芝居紹介します。ただの影絵と思われがちなパフォーマンスですが実は奥が深く、バリのヒンズー教と深く関わっている芸能のひとつで、バリのお寺での儀式・お祭りなどで頻繁に演じられます。ラーマヤナ物語、マハーバラタ物語のワヤン・クリはどちらもインドの古代叙事詩がもとになっており、今の世界観や日常にも通じる部分があったりします。
　演奏は、終始、昔バリ島で使用されていたと言われている、カウィ語によって行われます。言葉よりも、天上の音と呼ばれるガムラン楽器が織り成す音たち、影絵が生み出すオーラ、訴えかけるメッセージを、それぞれのハートで感じていただけたらと思います。
It introduces the galanty show that is called traditional Japanese theater Wayan Japanese chestnut" that represents Bali this time. The interior is actually deep though it is a performance that tends to be seemed that a free shadowgraph it, and it is frequently performed by one (Hinduism of Bali and public entertainments deeply related) in the ceremony and the festival, etc. in the temple in Bali. Both of wayan Japanese chestnut of the [ra-mayana] story and the [maha-barata] story ancient epics of India are original, and there is a part that runs in the current outlook on the world and daily life.
It is done in the word said that the performance had been from beginning to end used in Bali in old times. I think that feel the aura that the sounds whom the gamelan musical instruments that are called a sound in heavens from the word weave and shadowgraphs invent and the message that starts being appealed by each heart by me.
