Taken at a shigin competition at Arkas Sasebo in Sasebo, Japan during a culture festival, October 5, 2008. The participants usually stand completely still, and "recite" traditional Chinese or Japanese poems with great force and volume. The performance is accompanied by traditional Japanese instruments, such as the koto. Most of the participants were men in business suits or women in matching kimono...but these little girls were as good as the adults, and REALLY cute!
