Today I went to a festival and got to see this dance from the Heian period for the second time but today I was given a piece of paper that explained it! The Japanese court music tradition known as Gagaku (heard in the video) incorporates elements of Tang music and dance. This dance is to express joy at finding a snake! I assumed it was due to the year of the snake and was completely wrong!
