Burajiru Taikobayashi : Taiko Drumming

Burajiru Taikobayashi : Taiki DrummingTaiko literally means "big drum" in Japanese and is used in Japanese classical music. Although traditionally used as part of a Noh Play, you can now often hear Taiko ensembles playing solo concerts.

If you've never heard Taiko drumming live, then you've missed out on an amazing experience - especially when they're playing the huge drum with sticks that are like tree-trunks - the sound just resonates straight through your body.

This video clip shows a great Taiko drumming group playing live and is a good introduction to this form of music, so I recommend you check it out.
