Yosakoi festival
よさこい祭り

During this summer dance festival, the center of Kochi City turns into a stage for vivid performances, parades and celebrations.
よさこい祭りは、毎年8月に高知市で開催される大規模なお祭りです。よさこいは高知発祥のエネルギッシュな踊りです。 よさこい節という民謡をアレンジした曲に合わせて、色とりどりの衣装をまとった踊り子たちが踊りを繰り広げます。
よさこい祭りの期間は、高知市の中心部がダンスパフォーマンスやパレードによって、活気に満ちたムードにあふれる祝祭の空間に変わります。

高知発祥のよさこい祭りが北海道始め日本各地に伝播して、それぞれ衣装や振り付けに独自なテイストが加えられ、それが本家の高知に逆輸入されてリニューアルされていく…伝統を守りながらも時代を反映して変化も取り入れながら祭りが継承されていくのは面白いですね。😊

the folk rhyme started from 1:02 in this video is the rhythm my dad sang for me and my brothers in our babyhood as a lullaby. Anyone knows the song and singer? Thanks for your help.

Thank you for your inquiry. This original song is Kochi prefecture folk song "Yosakoi Bushi", and the composer is unknown. Kochi folk songs are sung by many singers, so they are not the works of any particular individual. The "Yosakoi Naruko Odori" used in the Yosakoi Festival was created by arranging this folk song. The composer is Eisaku Takemasa.
