Taiko Drumming ---Body Experience

Traditional  taiko  generally  involves  one  drummer on one big drum,playing  the  same rhythm  for  hours on end .It.s great for dancing  in the streets , but not exactly something you'd want to sit and watch  in a concert hall.

In fact what  I study and what you'll see performed in the  US is actually a modern form that developed  in Japan in the mid 20th  century '
What  you see presented on stage might  have its  roots in tradition  but largely is much more contemporary.
