As a genuine Noh play among all Noh plays, it has long been praised in the phrase "Yuya and Matsukaze (Noh play) are like cooked rice" (meaning "Yuya" and "Matsukeze" are masterpieces and just like cooked rice ? never boring no matter how many times you eat it, in fact tastier with every chew). |
いかにも能らしい能として、古来「熊野松風に米の飯」(『熊野』と『松風 (能)』は名曲で、米飯と同じく何度観ても飽きず、噛めば噛む程味が出る、の意)と賞賛されてきた。 |
