It is composed of 33 songs. The Kagura is devoted to Ogi Shrine on April 20 and September 30 every year. Nakae Iwato Kagura which was performed for the first time around 240 years ago is now designated as a nation’s intangible folklore cultural asset and a prefectural significant intangible folk cultural asset. It is also performed outside the local area.
