Default No one talks about Ringo's new song?

This piece of news has been out there for days.

Source:
http://www.oricon.co.jp/news/music/45263/

Shiina Ringo wrote a song called "玉手箱" by request of the Kabuki actor Nakamura Kanzaburo (whom she had a talk with in year 2006's Bokura no Ongaku). Nakamura will use the song (or is it a piece of traditional music deliberated for Kabuki?) in his new theater work "三人吉三". There's no plan of releasing it in the form of CDs yet.

Don't know how to read the kanjis.

It's Tamatebako.

That could be the reason why nobody's talking about it.
Last year it was La salle de bain.

Yep that's written there :

 昨年の『東海道四谷怪談』では、客入れ時に「浴室」[...]

Anyway, I already knew since a few days but I don't think that's a very interesting piece of news. That's a song we probably won't be able to hear, or at least not very soon, so who cares ?

I wrote a news article about it and forgot it. I guess somehow just will have to go see that; I guess it IS kabuki; of what form I don't know however.

I saw this news on shiinaringo.se but I didn't really understand it. o_o Is Nakamura Kanzaburo going to sing the song, or is it a 'background' type of song?

How the song is put into it all is beyond me. If this is real Kabuki, I guess it's not music that is part of the act itself. A real Kabuki play I saw last fall in Ginza only contained shamisen and that kind of basic instruments. Then again, this doesn't have to be a real kabuki, or it's a song between plays... someone should dig up more info on this. :-P

Shiina had a comment on that kabuki song:

 椎名は「私のコヱを用いるのに抵抗を覚え、なかなか克服できませんでした。下座の調子と私の南蛮楽器の調子を合わせ、同居させるのに終始しました。もったいない機会をいただき、まことにありがとうございました」とコメント。
