Taiko (太鼓?) are a broad range of Japanese percussion instruments. In Japanese, the term refers to any kind of drum, but outside Japan, it is used to refer to any of the various Japanese drums called wadaiko (和太鼓, "Japanese drums") and to the form of ensemble taiko drumming more specifically called kumi-daiko (組太鼓, "set of drums"). The process of constructing taiko varies between manufacturers, and preparation of both the drum body and skin can take several years depending on methodology.
Taiko have a mythological origin in Japanese folklore, but historical records suggest that taiko were introduced to Japan through Korean and Chinese cultural influence as early as the 6th century CE. Some taiko are similar to instruments originating from India. Archaeological evidence also supports that taiko were present in Japan during the 6th century in the Kofun period. Their function has varied through history, ranging from communication, military action, theatrical accompaniment, and religious ceremony to both festival and concert performances. In modern times, taiko have also played a central role in social movements for minorities both within and outside Japan.
Kodō (鼓童) ( http://www.agoravox.tv/culture-loisirs/culture/article/kodo-un-battement-de-coeur-29699 « Kodo, un battement de coeur japonais rythmé par le taiko » : voir l'article et les vidéos) est un groupe de percussionnistes japonais originaire de l'ile de Sado. Son nom signifie « battement de coeur » et « enfant du tambour » en japonais. ( http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kod%C5%8D_(groupe) ). Le collectif Kodo est formé en 1981 par d'anciens membres du groupe Ondekoza à la suite d'un différent entre Tagayasu (fondateur d'Ondekoza) et ses musiciens. Il perpétue et réinvente la tradition musicale japonaise, en explorant toutes les possibilités offertes par le taiko, tambour de peau tendue sur bois utilisé dans les fêtes traditionnelles. Il parcourt le monde depuis le début des années 1980 p...
A collection of professional Taiko performances. This one is a performance that is solo based - several of the members let loose and show off their Taiko drumming skills. The solos kick off in full swing at 8:20 if your'e impatient, but try watch it from the beginning or you miss the dynamics of the gradual buildup - very awe inspiring, you'll almost applaud yourself.
Alright here it is: the 2nd Taiko Set! After seeing how many ppl (especially fellow martial artists) enjoyed the first one I wanted to give you guys a completely new set. Thank you for all the encouragement and great stories you've shared! Unfortunately I was unable to create an entirely new mix with cc-licensed music alone so this Taiko Set is neither public domain nor cc-licensed. You can still use it if you want to but at your own risk. Also I can't provide any real tracklist because the set is a lot more sampled and mixed than the first one. All I can really tell ou is that I used various tracks and samples from the soundtrack to "Total War: Shogun", "Far Cry 4", "Ninja Assassin", "Mini Ninjas" and performances by various groups who played for the "Taiko pro Series" and some cc-lice...
Live Concert Performance of Classical Japanese Drumming. I am not the owner of the right of this video/content. This is solely for travel/music/educational Interests & Purposes. Thank You Very Much.
Third clip from this unknown (to me) show. The shamisen is played with powerful accompanyment from a taiko drummer. Forgive me for not sharing the artists names, I am relatively new to the Japanese language, let alone 漢字 (Kanji). I hope I spelled that right :D
